extortion <EZE22 -12> In thee have they taken gifts to shed <br>
blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast <br>
greedily gained of thy neighbours by {extortion}, and hast <br>
forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD.<br>
<br>
extortion <MAT23 -25> Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, <br>
hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the <br>
platter, but within they are full of {extortion} and excess.<br>
