Jeremiah 5:26-28
New Life Version
Jeremiah 5:26-28
New Life Version
26 For sinful men are found among My people. They watch like men lying in wait watching for birds. They set a trap, and they catch men. 27 Like a basket full of birds, their houses are full of lies and false ways. So they have become important and rich. 28 They are fat and smooth, and have done many sinful acts. They do not do what is right for those whose parents have died so that they may do well. And they do not help fight for the rights of the poor.

New International Version
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)
