11 “Moreover, say to the royal house(A) of Judah, ‘Hear the word of the Lord. 12 This is what the Lord says to you, house of David:

“‘Administer justice(B) every morning;
    rescue from the hand of the oppressor(C)
    the one who has been robbed,
or my wrath will break out and burn like fire(D)
    because of the evil(E) you have done—
    burn with no one to quench(F) it.
13 I am against(G) you, Jerusalem,
    you who live above this valley(H)
    on the rocky plateau, declares the Lord
you who say, “Who can come against us?
    Who can enter our refuge?”(I)
14 I will punish you as your deeds(J) deserve,
    declares the Lord.
I will kindle a fire(K) in your forests(L)
    that will consume everything around you.’”

11 And touching the house of the king of Judah, say, Hear ye the word of the Lord;

12 O house of David, thus saith the Lord; Execute judgment in the morning, and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.

13 Behold, I am against thee, O inhabitant of the valley, and rock of the plain, saith the Lord; which say, Who shall come down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?

14 But I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the Lord: and I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof, and it shall devour all things round about it.
