Rulers and Prophets Denounced

1 And I said:
^eHear, you heads of Jacob
and rulers of the house of Israel!
^fIs it not for you to know justice?—
2 you ^gwho hate the good and love the evil,
^hwho tear the skin from off my people ^{▼▼Hebrew from off them}
and their flesh from off their bones,
3 ^jwho 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.
4 ^kThen they will cry to the Lord,
but he will not answer them;
^lhe will hide his face from them at that time,
because they have made their deeds evil.

Zephaniah 3:13

13 ^mthose who are left in Israel;
they ⁿshall do no injustice
and speak no lies,
^onor shall there be found in their mouth
a deceitful tongue.
^pFor they shall graze and lie down,
and none shall make them afraid.”

Warning to the Rich

1 Come now, ^tyou rich, weep and howl for the ^umiseries that are coming upon you. 2 ^vYour riches have rotted and ^wyour garments are moth-eaten. 3 Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. ^xYou have laid up treasure ^yin the last days. 4 Behold, ^zthe wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and ^aathe cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of ^abthe Lord of hosts. 5 ^acYou have lived on the earth in luxury and ^adin self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in ^aea day of slaughter. 6 You have condemned and ^afmurdered ^agthe righteous person. He does not resist you.

Revelation of John 19:11-16

The Rider on a White Horse

11 Then I saw ^ahheaven opened, and behold, ^aia white horse! The one sitting on it is called ^ajFaithful and True, and ^akin righteousness he judges and makes war. 12 ^alHis eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are ^ammany diadems, and he has ^ana name written that no one knows but himself. 13 He is clothed in ^aoa robe dipped in ^{▼▼Some manuscripts sprinkled with} blood, and the name by which he is called is ^aqThe Word of God. 14 And the armies of heaven, ^ararrayed in fine linen, white and pure, ^aswere following him on white horses. 15 ^atFrom his mouth comes a sharp sword ^auwith which to strike down the nations, and ^avhe will rule them with a rod of iron. ^awHe will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. 16 On his robe and on his thigh ^axhe has a name written, ^ayKing of kings and Lord of lords.
