Thematic Bible



They eat the bread of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence.

The wicked displace boundary markers.
They steal a flock and provide pasture for it.

Their webs cannot become clothing,
and they cannot cover themselves with their works.
Their works are sinful works,
and violent acts are in their hands.

As a well gushes out its water,
so she pours out her evil.
Violence and destruction resound in her.
Sickness and wounds keep coming to My attention.

The people are incapable of doing right
this is the Lord’s declaration—
those who store up violence and destruction
in their citadels.
