Jeremiah 5:26-28
New Century Version
26 There are wicked men among my people.
Like those who make nets for catching birds,
they set their traps to catch people.
27 Like cages full of birds,
their houses are full of lies.
They have become rich and powerful.
28 They have grown big and fat.
There is no end to the evil things they do.
They won’t plead the case of the orphan
or help the poor be judged fairly.
Jeremiah 5:26-28
New International Version
26 “Among my people are the wicked(A)
who lie in wait(B) like men who snare birds
and like those who set traps(C) to catch people.
27 Like cages full of birds,
their houses are full of deceit;(D)
they have become rich(E) and powerful
28 and have grown fat(F) and sleek.
Their evil deeds have no limit;
they do not seek justice.
They do not promote the case of the fatherless;(G)
they do not defend the just cause of the poor.(H)
