2:6 This is what the Lord says:
“Because Israel has committed three covenant transgressions 1 –
make that four! 2 – I will not revoke my decree of judgment. 3
They sold the innocent 4 for silver,
the needy for a pair of sandals. 5
2:7 They trample 6 on the dirt-covered heads of the poor; 7
they push the destitute away. 8
A man and his father go to the same girl; 9
in this way they show disrespect 10 for my moral purity. 11
2:8 They stretch out on clothing seized as collateral;
they do so right 12 beside every altar!
They drink wine bought with the fines they have levied;
they do so right in the temple 13 of their God! 14
