Thus says the Lord God: Enough, O princes of Israel! Put away violence and oppression, and execute justice and righteousness; cease your evictions of my people, declares the Lord God—addressing the princes directly with a call to justice and the cessation of oppressive practices. The condemnation of violence and oppression identifies specific sins of past rulers. The call to justice and righteousness establishes covenantal expectations for the new era.
