Psalms 58:1-2

God Who Judges the Earth

To the choirmaster: according to fDo Not Destroy. A gMiktam
Probably a musical or liturgical term
of David.

1 Do you indeed decree what is right, you gods?
Or  you mighty lords (by revocalization; Hebrew in silence)

Do you judge the children of man uprightly?
2No, in your hearts you devise wrongs;
your hands jdeal out violence on earth.

Micah 3:1-3

Rulers and Prophets Denounced

1 And I said:
kHear, you heads of Jacob
and rulers of the house of Israel!
lIs it not for you to know justice?—
2you mwho hate the good and love the evil,
nwho tear the skin from off my people
Hebrew  from off them

and their flesh from off their bones,
3 pwho eat the flesh of my people,
and flay their skin from off them,
and break their bones in pieces
and chop them up like meat in a pot,
like flesh in a cauldron.

Micah 3:9-12

9 qHear this, you heads of the house of Jacob
and rulers of the house of Israel,
rwho detest justice
and make crooked all that is straight,
10 swho build Zion with blood
and Jerusalem with iniquity.
11 tIts heads give judgment for a bribe;
uits priests teach for a price;
vits prophets practice divination for money;
wyet they lean on the Lord and xsay,
“Is not the Lord in the midst of us?
yNo disaster shall come upon us.”
12Therefore because of you
zZion shall be plowed as a field;
Jerusalem aashall become a heap of ruins,
and abthe mountain of the house aca wooded height.
