For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

He will judge the poor of the people. He will save the children of the needy, and will break the oppressor in pieces.

Don't devise evil against your neighbor, since he dwells securely by you.

Wash yourselves, make yourself clean. Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes. Cease to do evil.

The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery; yes, they have troubled the poor and needy, and have oppressed the foreigner wrongfully.

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and as a pretense you make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation.
