- "Woeª unto him that buildethª° his houseª by² unrighteousness,ª¹ and his chambersª by wrong;ª¹ [that] useth his neighbour'sª serviceª° without wages,ª and givethª° him not¹ for his work;ª ... But¹ thine eyesª and thine heartª [are] not¹ but for¹¹¹ thy covetousness,ª and for¹ to shedª° innocentª blood,ª and for¹ oppression,ª and for¹ violence,ª to doª° [it]." {Jer 22:13-17} + "[There is] a conspiracyª of her prophetsª in the midstª thereof, like a roaringª° lionª raveningª° the prey;ª they have devouredª° souls;ª they have takenª° the treasureª and precious things;ª they have made her manyª° widowsª in the midstª thereof. ... And her prophetsª have daubedª° them with untemperedª [morter], seeingª vanity,ª and diviningª° liesª unto them, saying,ª° Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD,ª when the LORDª hath not¹ spoken.ª°" {Ezk 22:25-28} + "Woeª to him that covetethª° an evilª covetousnessª to his house,ª that he may setª° his nestª on high,ª that he may be deliveredª° from the powerª¹ of evil!ª ... Woeª to him that buildethª° a townª with blood,ª and stablishethª° a cityª by iniquity!ª" {Hab 2:9-12} + "Her princesª withinª her [are] roaringª° lions;ª her judgesª° [are] eveningª wolves;ª they gnaw not the bonesª°¹ till the morrow.ª" {Zph 3:3} + "Thenª answeredª° allª the¹ people,ª and said,ª° Hisª bloodª [be] onª us,ª andª onª ourª children.²¹" {Mtt 27:25} + "Norª considerª° thatª it is expedientª° for us,ª thatª oneª manª should dieª° forª the¹ people,ª andª that the¹ wholeª nationª perishª° not.ª" {Jhn 11:50}
