Jeremiah 5:26-31

26For wicked men are found among my people; they lurk like fowlers lying in wait. They set a trap; they catch men.

27Like a cage full of birds, their houses are full of deceit; therefore they have become great and rich;

28they have grown fat and sleek. They know no bounds in deeds of evil; they judge not with justice the cause of the fatherless, to make it prosper, and they do not defend the rights of the needy.

29Shall I not punish them for these things? declares the Lord, and shall I not avenge myself on a nation such as this?"

30An appalling and horrible thing has happened in the land:

31the prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule at their direction; my people love to have it so, but what will you do when the end comes?
