I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.

The verse 6 is found in chapter 10 of Isaiah. The woe against those who enact unjust laws directly connects sin with the administration of justice. The oppressor may use legal structures to dispossess widows and orphans, but human authority remains subject to divine judgment. The text reminds us that law and power must answer to God’s justice.

Ich will ihn senden gegen ein Heuchelvolk und ihm Befehl tun gegen das Volk meines Zorns, daß er's beraube und austeile und zertrete es wie Kot auf der Gasse,
Mandarele contra una gente fementida, y sobre el pueblo de mi ira le enviaré, para que quite despojos, y arrebate presa, y que lo ponga a ser hollado como lodo de las calles.
La envío contra una nación impía y la mando contra el pueblo de mi indignación, para saquear el botín y arrebatar los despojos, y pisotearlo como el barro de las calles.
Je l'ai lâché contre une nation impie, Je l'ai fait marcher contre le peuple de mon courroux, Pour qu'il se livre au pillage et fasse du butin, Pour qu'il le foule aux pieds comme la boue des rues.
Io lo manderò contro alla gente profana, e gli darò commissione contro al popolo del mio cruccio; per ispogliar spoglie, per predar preda, e per render quello calcato, come il fango delle strade.
Enviá-la-ei contra uma nação hipócrita, e contra o povo do meu furor lhe darei ordem, para que lhe roube a presa, e lhe tome o despojo, e o ponha para ser pisado aos pés, como a lama das ruas.
我要差遣他攻擊褻瀆的國, 吩咐他對付我所惱怒的民, 搶走擄物,奪取掠物, 將他們踐踏,如同街上的泥土一般。
