8  And on the day of the Lord’s sacrifice—

“I will punish the officials and the king’s sons

and all who array themselves in foreign attire.

9  On that day I will punish

everyone who ^mleaps over the threshold,

and those who fill their master’s¹ house

with violence and fraud.

12  At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps,

and I will punish the men

who are complacent,¹

those who say in their hearts,

ⁿ‘The Lord will not do good,

nor will he do ill.’

18  Neither their silver nor their gold

shall be able to deliver them

^ton the day of the wrath of the Lord.

^uIn the fire of his jealousy,

all the earth shall be consumed;

for a full and sudden end

he will make of all the inhabitants of the earth.

3  Her officials within her

are roaring lions;

her judges are ^mevening wolves

that leave nothing till the morning.

4  Her prophets are fickle, treacherous men;

her priests ⁿprofane what is holy;

they do violence to the law.
