Chapter 21
12house of David, this is what the Lord says: 'Administer justice every morning; And save the person who has been robbed from the power of his oppressor, So that My wrath will not spread like fire And burn, with no one to extinguish it, Because of the evil of their deeds. 13'Behold, I am against you, you inhabitant of the valley, You rocky plain,' declares the Lord, 'You who say, ‘Who will come down against us? Or who will enter our dwellings?’ 14But I will punish you according to the results of your deeds,' declares the Lord, 'And I will kindle a fire in its forest So that it may devour all its surroundings.'?’?'King James Version
Chapter 21
12O house of David, thus saith the LORD; Execute judgment in the morning, and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings. 13Behold, I am against thee, O inhabitant of the valley, and rock of the plain, saith the LORD; which say, Who shall come down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations? 14But I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the LORD: and I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof, and it shall devour all things round about it.Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 21
12This is what the Lord says to the dynasty of David: '‘Give justice each morning to the people you judge! Help those who have been robbed; rescue them from their oppressors. Otherwise, my anger will burn like an unquenchable fire because of all your sins. 13I will personally fight against the people in Jerusalem, that mighty fortress — the people who boast, 'No one can touch us here. No one can break in here.' 14And I myself will punish you for your sinfulness, says the Lord. I will light a fire in your forests that will burn up everything around you.’'English Standard Version
13“Behold, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley, O rock of the plain, declares the LORD; you who say, ‘Who shall come down against us, or who shall enter our habitations?’
14I will punish you according to the fruit of your deeds, declares the LORD; I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all that is around her.”

12This is what the LORD says to you, house of David: ''Administer justice every morning; rescue from the hand of the oppressor the one who has been robbed, or my wrath will break out and burn like fire because of the evil you have done-- burn with no one to quench it. 13I am against you, Jerusalem, you who live above this valley on the rocky plateau, declares the LORD-- you who say, 'Who can come against us? Who can enter our refuge?' 14I will punish you as your deeds deserve, declares the LORD. I will kindle a fire in your forests that will consume everything around you.''New King James Version
