1 Zato rekoh: Čujte, poglavice Jakovljeve i knezovi doma Izrailjevog, ne treba li vam znati šta je pravo? 2 Koji mrzite na dobro, a ljubite zlo, sadirete kožu s njih i meso s kosti njihovih; 3 I jedete meso naroda mog i sadirete kožu s njih i kosti im prebijate, i sasecate kao u lonac i kao meso u kotao. 4 Tada će vikati ka Gospodu, ali ih neće uslišiti, nego će sakriti lice svoje od njih u ono vreme, kako oni zlo radiše. 5 Ovako veli Gospod za proroke koji zavode moj narod, koji grizu zubima svojim i viču: Mir; i ako im ko ne da ništa u usta, dižu rat na nj. 6 Zato će vam utvara biti noć i proricanje vaše tama; i sunce će zaći tim prorocima i dan će im se smračiti. 7 Tada će se postideti videoci, i vračari će se posramiti, i svi će zastrti usne svoje, jer neće biti odgovora Božjeg. 8 Ali ja sam pun sile od Duha Gospodnjeg, i suda i hrabrosti da kažem Jakovu zločinstvo njegovo i Izrailju greh njegov. 9 Čujte ovo, poglavice doma Jakovljevog i knezovi doma Izrailjevog, koji se gadite na pravdu, i sve što je pravo izvrćete; 10 Koji gradite Sion krvlju i Jerusalim bezakonjem. 11 Poglavari njegovi sude po mitu, i sveštenici njegovi uče za platu, i proroci njegovi gataju za novce, a na Gospoda se oslanjaju govoreći: Nije li Gospod usred nas? Neće doći zlo na nas. 12 Zato će se s vas Sion preorati kao njiva, i Jerusalim će postati gomila, i gora od doma visoka šuma.

Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… declared when He said, "Fill ye up the measure of your fathers." For from the first the prophets used to charge them with these things, saying, "Your hands are full of blood;" and, "They mingle blood with blood;" and, "They build up Sion with blood." But they did not learn self-restraint, albeit they received this commandment first, "Thou shalt not …
