But you, yourselves have failed to honor the Cowering One! Are not the Wealthy Ones tyrannizing yourselves and they, themselves dragging yourselves down into criterions?2Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
And ye have despised the beggar. Do not the rich bring you into subjection, and draw you before tribunals?
And ye have despised the beggar. Do not the rich bring you into subjection, and draw you before tribunals?
LITV Translation:
But you dishonored the poor one. Do not the rich ones oppress you, and they drag you to judgment seats?
But you dishonored the poor one. Do not the rich ones oppress you, and they drag you to judgment seats?
