10 The father's shame they have discovered in thee, the uncleanness of the menstruous woman they have humbled in thee.
11 And every one hath wrought abomination upon his neighbour's wife, and the father in law hath polluted his daughter in law wickedly, the brother hath oppressed his sister the daughter of his father in thee.
12 They have taken gifts in thee to shed blood: thou hast taken usury and overplus, and didst calumniate thy neighbours covetously: and thou hast forgotten me, saith our Lord God.

28 And her Prophets daubed them without tempering, seeing vain things, & divining lies to them, saying: Thus saith our Lord God: whereas our Lord hath not spoken.
29 The people of the land they oppressed by calumny, and took away violently: the needy and poor they afflicted, and the stranger they oppressed by calumny without judgement.
