Isaiah 10:1-3

New International Reader's Version

10 How terrible it will be for you
    who make laws that aren’t fair!
How terrible for you
    who write laws that make life hard for others!
² You take away the rights of poor people.
    You hold back what is fair from my people who are suffering.
You take for yourselves what belongs to widows.
    You rob children whose fathers have died.
³ What will you do on the day when the Lord punishes you?
    On that day trouble will come from far away.
Who will you run to for help?
    Who will you trust your riches with?
