Jeremiah 5:26-28
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
26 For the wicked are found among my people.
They lie in wait like hunters;
destroyers,[a] they catch humans.(A)
27 Like a cage full of birds,
their houses are full of treachery;
therefore they have become great and rich;(B)
28 they have grown fat and sleek.
They know no limits in deeds of wickedness;
they do not judge with justice
the cause of the orphan, to make it prosper,
and they do not defend the rights of the needy.(C)

who lie in wait(B) like men who snare birds
and like those who set traps(C) to catch people.

Jeremiah 5:26-28

26 For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men.
27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.
28 They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
