Isaiah 3:14

Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?

Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.

The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient, The captain of fifty, and the honourable man, and the counsellor, and the cunning artificer, and the eloquent orator.

For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.

But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?

As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.

They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor.

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the Lord.

And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.

Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof. They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow’s ox for a pledge. They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together. Behold, as wild asses in the desert, go they forth to their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness yieldeth food for them and for their children. They reap every one his corn in the field: and they gather the vintage of the wicked. They cause the naked to lodge without clothing, that they have no covering in the cold.

For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God.

Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.

Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable?
