“Those who buy them slay them and go unpunished, and each of those who sell them says, ‘Blessed be the LORD, for I have become rich!’ And their own shepherds have no pity on them.
“For I will no longer have pity on the inhabitants of the land,” declares the LORD; “but behold, I will cause the men to fall, each into another’s power and into the power of his king; and they will strike the land, and I will not deliver them from their power.”
Ведь Я больше не стану жалеть обитателей страны, — возвещает Господь. — Я отдам всякого в руки ближнего его и в руки его царя; они будут опустошать страну, а Я не стану спасать никого от их рук.
