Context of Ezekiel 22:8
6Behold, the princes of Israel, every one according to his power, have been in thee to shed blood. 7In thee have they set light by father and mother; in the midst of thee have they dealt by oppression with the sojourner; in thee have they wronged the fatherless and the widow. Thou hast despised my holy things, and hast profaned my sabbaths. 9Slanderous men have been in thee to shed blood; and in thee they have eaten upon the mountains: in the midst of thee they have committed lewdness. 10In thee have they uncovered their fathers’ nakedness; in thee have they humbled her that was unclean in her impurity.
