Thy rulers, are unruly, and companions of thieves, Every one of the people, loveth a bribe, and runneth after rewards, - The fatherless, they do not vindicate, And, the plea of the widow, reacheth them not.
Who justify the lawless, for a bribe, - Whereas the righteousness of the righteous, they take from him.

Her rulers in her midst, are roaring lions, - her judges, evening wolves, they have left nothing until morning!
