King James Version
Jeremiah 5:27-29
27As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.1
28They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
29Shall I not visit for these things? saith the Lord: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
