3:4 The Lord says,
malicious young men
3:5 The people will treat each other harshly;
men will oppose each other;
neighbors will fight.
Youths will proudly defy the elderly
and riffraff will challenge those who were once respected.
3:12 Oppressors treat my
creditors rule over them.
My people’s leaders mislead them;
they give you confusing directions.
