6 我ヱホバの前に何をもちゆきて高き神を拜せん 燔祭の物および當歳の犢をもてその御前にいたるべきか
Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bowe my selfe before the hie God? Shall I come before him with burnt offrings, and with calues of a yeere olde?

10 惡人の家に猶惡財ありや 詛ふべき縮小たる升ありや
Are yet the treasures of wickednes in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure, that is abominable?
11 我もし正からざる權衡を用ひ袋に僞の碼子をいれおかば爭で潔からんや
Shall I iustifie the wicked balances, and the bag of deceitfull weightes?
12 その富る人は強暴にて充ち其居民は謊言を言ひその舌は口の中にて欺くことを爲す
For the rich men thereof are full of crueltie, and the inhabitants thereof haue spoken lyes, and their tongue is deceitfull in their mouth.
13 是をもて我も汝を撃て重傷を負はせ汝の罪のために汝を滅す
Therefore also will I make thee sicke in smiting thee, and in making thee desolate, because of thy sinnes.
14 汝は食ふとも飽ず腹はつねに空ならん 汝は移すともつひに拯ふことを得じ 汝が拯ひし者は我これを劍に付すべし
