Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ Pejabat-pejabat pemerintahnya seperti serigala yang merobek-robek mangsanya. Mereka melakukan pembunuhan hanya untuk mencari untung. ²⁸ Para nabi menyembunyikan dosa-dosa itu; mereka seperti orang yang mengapuri tembok yang kotor. Penglihatan-penglihatan mereka palsu, begitu juga ramalan-ramalan mereka. Mereka mengaku bahwa pesan yang mereka sampaikan adalah yang mereka terima dari TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, padahal Aku sama sekali tidak berbicara kepada mereka. ²⁹ Orang-orang kaya menipu dan merampok. Mereka memperlakukan orang miskin dengan sewenang-wenang dan mengambil keuntungan dari orang asing. ³⁰ Di antara orang Israel itu, Aku mencari orang yang dapat mendirikan tembok, atau berdiri di tempat-tempat yang tembok-temboknya runtuh untuk mempertahankan negeri itu apabila Aku hendak menghancurkannya dalam luapan kemarahan-Ku; namun tak seorang pun yang Kutemukan. ³¹ Sebab itu sekarang Kulepaskan kemarahan-Ku terhadap mereka, dan seperti api Aku akan membinasakan mereka karena segala perbuatan mereka. Aku TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara."

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ I suoi principi sono stati dentro di essa come lupi che rapiscono la preda, spandendo il sangue, e distruggendo le anime, per saziar la loro avarizia. ²⁸ E i suoi profeti han fatto loro uno smalto mal tegnente; hanno avute visioni di vanità, ed hanno loro indovinata menzogna, dicendo: Così ha detto il Signore Iddio; benchè il Signore non avesse parlato. ²⁹ Il popolo del paese ha fatte delle storsioni, e rapine, ed han fatta violenza al povero, ed al bisognoso; hanno oppressato il forestiere, senza che gli si sia fatta ragione. ³⁰ Ed io ho cercato d’infra loro alcuno che facesse alcun riparo; e che si presentasse davanti a me alla rottura, per lo paese; acciocchè io non lo desertassi; ma non ne ho trovato alcuno. ³¹ Perciò, io spanderò sopra loro l’ira mia; io li consumerò col fuoco della mia indegnazione; io renderò loro la lor via in sul capo, dice il Signore Iddio.

ItalianRiveduta⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ E i suoi capi, in mezzo a lei, son come lupi che sbranano la loro preda: spandono il sangue, perdono le anime per saziare la loro cupidigia. ²⁸ E i loro profeti intonacan loro tutto questo con malta che non regge: hanno delle visioni vane, pronostican loro la menzogna, e dicono: Così parla il Signore, l’Eterno mentre l’Eterno non ha parlato affatto. ²⁹ Il popolo del paese si dà alla violenza, commette rapine, calpesta l’afflitto e il povero, opprime lo straniero, contro ogni equità. ³⁰ Ed io ho cercato fra loro qualcuno che riparasse la cinta e stesse sulla breccia davanti a me in favore del paese, perché io non lo distruggessi; ma non l’ho trovato. ³¹ Perciò, io riverserò su loro la mia indignazione; io li consumerò col fuoco della mia ira, e farò ricadere sul loro capo la loro condotta, dice il Signore, l’Eterno".

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ Os seus príncipes no meio dela são como lobos que arrebatam a presa: derramando o sangue, e destruindo vidas, para adquirirem lucro desonesto. ²⁸ E os profetas têm feito para eles reboco com argamassa fraca tendo visões falsas, e adivinhando-lhes mentira, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor Deus; sem que o Senhor tivesse falado. ²⁹ O povo da terra tem usado de opressão, e andado roubando e fazendo violência ao pobre e ao necessitado, e tem oprimido injustamente ao estrangeiro. ³⁰ E busquei dentre eles um homem que levantasse o muro, e se pusesse na brecha perante mim por esta terra, para que eu não a destruísse; porém a ninguém achei. ³¹ Por isso eu derramei sobre eles a minha indignação; com o fogo do meu furor os consumi; fiz que o seu caminho lhes recaísse sobre a cabeça, diz o Senhor Deus.
