4 Hear this, gyou who trample on the needy
and bring the poor of the land to an end,
5saying, “When will hthe new moon be over,
that we may sell grain?
And ithe Sabbath,
that we may offer wheat for sale,
that we may make jthe ephah small and the shekel
An  ephah was about 3/5 bushel or 22 liters; a  shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 11 grams
great
and deal deceitfully with false balances,
6that we may buy the poor for lsilver
and the needy for a pair of sandals
and sell the chaff of the wheat?”

are roaring lions;
her judges are nevening wolves
that leave nothing till the morning.
