This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Ye; rulers and judges.
Judgment; the righteous sentence of the law, the equity of it, which is sweet and pleasing to just men, and safe for all.
Wormwood; proverbially understood, bitterness, grief, injustice, and oppression.
Leave off righteousness; make it to cease in your courts of judicature, and tread it under foot.
In the earth; or among men, in the land: the latter part of this verse explains the former.
