KJV ORIGINAL
Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: and they that sell them say, Blessed be the LORD; for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
The people who own them kill them without feeling any guilt about it. The ones selling them are like 'Thank God, I'm getting paid!' And even their own leaders who should be protecting them? They couldn't care less.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When leaders treat people like products instead of protecting them, something's seriously broken.
