3 (UKJV) "Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the next day. "

4 (VUL) Prophetae eius vaniloqui, viri fallaces; sacerdotes eius polluerunt sanctum, iniuste egerunt contra legem.
4 (UKJV) Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.

5 (VUL) Dominus iustus in medio eius non faciet iniquitatem; mane, mane iudicium suum dabit, sicut lucem, quae non deficit; nescivit autem iniquus confusionem.

8 (VUL) Quapropter exspecta me, dicit Dominus, in die qua surgam ut testis; quia iudicium meum, ut congregem gentes et colligam regna, ut effundam super eas indignationem meam, omnem iram furoris mei; in igne enim zeli mei devorabitur omnis terra.
8 (UKJV) Therefore wait all of you upon me, says the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

9 (VUL) Quia tunc reddam populis labium purum, ut invocent omnes in nomine Domini et serviant ei umero uno.
9 (UKJV) For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent.

10 (VUL) Ultra flumina Aethiopiae, inde supplices mei, filii dispersorum meorum deferent munus mihi.
10 (UKJV) From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.

11 (VUL) In die illa non confunderis super cunctis actionibus tuis, quibus praevaricata es in me; quia tunc auferam de medio tui magniloquos superbos tuos, et non adicies exaltari amplius in monte sancto meo.
11 (UKJV) In that day shall you not be ashamed for all your doings, wherein you have transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of you them that rejoice in your pride, and you shall no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.

12 (VUL) Et derelinquam in medio tui populum pauperem et egenum ”. Et sperabunt in nomine Domini reliquiae Israel.
12 (UKJV) I will also leave in the midst of you an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.

13 (VUL) Non facient iniquitatem nec loquentur mendacium; et non invenietur in ore eorum lingua dolosa, quoniam ipsi pascentur et accubabunt, et non erit qui exterreat.
