Ezekiel 22:6-16

6“‘Look, every prince of Israel within you has used his strength to shed blood.

7Father and mother are treated with contempt, and the resident alien is exploited within you. The fatherless and widow are oppressed in you.

8You despise my holy things and profane my Sabbaths.

9There are men within you who slander in order to shed blood. People who live in you eat at the mountain shrines; they commit depraved acts within you.

10Men within you have sexual intercourse with their father’s wife and violate women during their menstrual impurity.

11One man within you commits a detestable act with his neighbor’s wife; another defiles his daughter-in-law with depravity; and yet another violates his sister, his father’s daughter.

12People who live in you accept bribes in order to shed blood. You take interest and profit on a loan and brutally extort your neighbors. You have forgotten me. This is the declaration of the Lord God.

13“‘Now look, I clap my hands together against the dishonest profit you have made and against the blood shed among you.

14Will your courage endure or your hands be strong in the days when I deal with you? I, the Lord, have spoken, and I will act.

15I will disperse you among the nations and scatter you among the countries; I will purge your uncleanness.

16You will be profaned in the sight of the nations. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
