10 There are those who hate the one who upholds justice in court

and detest the one who tells the truth.

10 They hate him who reproves in the gate,

and they abhor him who speaks the truth.

10 They hate him that rebuketh in the gate,

And they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

10 How you hate honest judges!

How you despise people who tell the truth!

10 You hate those who speak in court against evil,

and you can’t stand those who tell the truth.

10 They hate him that reproveth in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

10 They hate him that reproveth in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

10 Israel, you hate anyone who speaks out against injustice. 

You are disgusted by anyone who speaks the truth. 

10 They hate the one who convicts the guilty

at the city gate

and despise the one who speaks with integrity.

10 They hate the one who reproves in the gate,

and they abhor the one who speaks the truth.

10 They hate the one who reproves in the gate and they abhor the one who speaks honestly.

10 Israel, you hate those who do what is right in court.

You can’t stand those who tell the truth.

10 They hate him who reproves in the gate,

And they abhor him who speaks with integrity.
