Whoso is justifying the wicked, And condemning the righteous, Even both of these are an abomination to Jehovah.

A stone and a stone, an ephah and an ephah, Even both of them are an abomination to Jehovah.

A hearing ear, and a seeing eye, Jehovah hath made even both of them.

For suddenly doth their calamity rise, And the ruin of them both -- who knoweth!

A stone is heavy, and the sand is heavy, And the anger of a fool Is heavier than they both.

The poor and the man of frauds have met together, Jehovah is enlightening the eyes of them both.

Open thy mouth, judge righteously, Both the cause of the poor and needy!'
