- "Makeª° a chain:ª for¹ the landª is fullª° of bloodyª crimes,ª and the cityª is fullª° of violence.ª" {Ezk 7:23} + "For¹ the vineyardª of the LORDª of hostsª [is] the houseª of Israel,ª and the menª of Judahª his pleasantª plant:ª and he lookedª° for judgment,ª but behold¹ oppression;ª for righteousness,ª but behold¹ a cry.ª" {Isa 5:7} + "For¹ thou hast brokenª°¹ the yokeª of his burden,ª and the staffª of his shoulder,ª the rodª of his oppressor,ª° as in the dayª of Midian.ª" {Isa 9:4} + "Rejoiceª° not¹ thou, whole¹ Palestina,ª because¹ the rodª of him that¹ smoteª° thee is broken:ª° for out of the serpent's² rootª¹¹ shall come forthª° a cockatrice,ª and his fruitª [shall be] a fiery²° flying²° serpent.ª¹" {Isa 14:29} + "Their websª shall not¹ become¹ garments,ª neither¹ shall they cover²° themselves¹ with their works:ª their worksª [are] worksª of iniquity,ª and the actª of violenceª [is] in their hands.ª ... The wayª of peaceª they knowª° not;¹ and [there is] no¹ judgmentª in their goings:ª they have made them crookedª° paths:ª whosoever¹ goethª° therein shall not¹ knowª° peace.ª" {Isa 59:6-8} + "As a fountainª casteth outª° her waters,ª so¹ she casteth¹ out²° her wickedness:ª violenceª and spoilª is heardª° in her; before¹¹ me² continuallyª [is] griefª and wounds.ª" {Jer 6:7} + "For they knowª° not¹ to doª° right,ª saithª° the LORD,ª who store²° up¹ violenceª and robberyª in their palaces.ª" {Ams 3:10} + "Ye that put far awayª° the evilª day,ª and cause the seatª° of violenceª to come near;ª°" {Ams 6:3} + "And they covetª° fields,ª and take [them] by violence;ª° and houses,ª and take [them] away:ª° so they oppressª° a manª and his house,ª even a manª and his heritage.ª" {Mic 2:2} + "Who¹ also eatª° the fleshª of my people,ª and flayª° their skinª from off¹¹ them; and they breakª° their bones,ª and chop them in pieces,ª° as¹ for the pot,ª and as fleshª withinª the caldron.ª" {Mic 3:3} + "For¹ the rich menª thereof are fullª° of violence,ª and the inhabitantsª° thereof have spokenª° lies,ª and their tongueª [is] deceitfulª in their mouth.ª" {Mic 6:12} + "Forª he shall have judgmentª without mercy,ª that hath shewedª° noª mercy;ª andª mercyª rejoiceth againstª° judgment.ª" {Jms 2:13}
