Ezekiel 13:17-19

17“Now you, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who are 1prophesying 2from their own 3inspiration. Prophesy against them 18and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Woe to the women who sew magic bands on 4all wrists and make veils for the heads of persons of every stature to 5hunt down 6lives! Will you hunt down the 7lives of My people, but preserve the 8lives of others for yourselves? 199For handfuls of barley and fragments of bread, you have profaned Me to My people to put to death 10some who should not die and to 11keep 12others alive who should not live, by your lying to My people who listen to lies.”’”
