New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁸Because you have plundered many nations,

because of human bloodshed, and violence to the earth,
to cities and all who live in them.

⁹“Alas for you who get evil gain for your house,
    setting your nest on high
    to be safe from the reach of harm!”
¹⁰You have devised shame for your house
    by cutting off many peoples;
    you have forfeited your life.
