9The look on their faces testifies against them,and like Sodom, they flaunt their sin;they do not conceal it.Woe to them,for they have brought disaster on themselves. 10Tell the righteous that it will go well for them,for they will eat the fruit of their labor. 11Woe to the wicked—it will go badly for them,for what they have done will be done to them. 12Youths oppress my people,and women rule over them.My people, your leaders mislead you;they confuse the direction of your paths. 13The Lord rises to argue the caseand stands to judge the people. 14The Lord brings this chargeagainst the elders and leaders of his people:“You have devastated the vineyard.The plunder from the poor is in your houses.15Why do you crush my peopleand grind the faces of the poor?”

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The Lord will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof,.... Both civil and ecclesiastical; the princes, chief priests, and elders of the people, who set themselves and took counsel together against the Lord and his Christ; would not suffer the people to be gathered to him; sought his life, and at last took it away.
For ye have eaten up the vineyard, or burnt it p; the house of Israel, and of Judah compared to a vineyard, in a following chapter; and so the Targum,
"ye have oppressed my people;''
these are the husbandmen our Lord speaks of, that beat the servants that were sent for the fruits of the vineyard, and at last killed the heir, Matthew 21:34.
The spoil of the poor [is] in your houses; the Pharisees devoured widows' houses, and filled their own, with the spoil of them,

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
With the ancients ... - With the old men, the counselors.
Ye have eaten up the vineyard - Hebrew âYe have burnt upâ - that is, you have oonsumed or destroyed it. By the vineyard is represented the Jewish republic or people; Psalms 80:9-13; compare the notes at Isaiah 5:1-7. The princes and rulers had, by their exactions and oppressions, ruined the people, and destroyed the country.
The spoil of the poor - The âplunderâ of the poor; or that which you have taken from the poor by exactions and oppressions. The word âspoilâ commonly means the plunder or booty which is obtained in war.
