Ezekiel 22:23-29

23And the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559,

24“SonH1121 of manH120, sayH559 to her, ‘You are a landH776 that is 1not cleansedH2891 or rainedH1652 on in the dayH3117 of indignationH2195.’

25There is a 2conspiracyH7195 of her prophetsH5030 in her midstH8432 like a roaringH7580 lionH738 tearingH2963 the preyH2964. They have 3devouredH398 livesH5315; they have takenH3947 treasureH2633 and preciousH3366 thingsH3366; they have madeH7235 manyH7235 4widowsH490 in the midstH8432 of her.

26Her 5priestsH3548 have doneH2554 violenceH2554 to My lawH8451 and have 6profanedH2490 My holyH6944 thingsH6944; they have madeH914 noH3808 7distinctionH914 betweenH996 the holyH6944 and the profaneH2455, and they have not taughtH3045 the difference betweenH996 the 8uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889; and they hideH5956 their eyesH5869 from My sabbathsH7676, and I am profanedH2490 amongH8432 them.

27Her princesH8269 withinH7130 her are like wolvesH2061 tearingH2963 the preyH2964, by sheddingH8210 bloodH1818 and 9destroyingH6 livesH5315 in orderH4616 to getH1214 10dishonestH1214 gainH1215.

28Her prophetsH5030 have smearedH2902 whitewashH8602 for them, seeingH2372 11falseH7723 visionsH7723 and diviningH7080 liesH3577 for them, sayingH559, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 GodH3068,’ when the LordH3068 has not spokenH1696.

29The peopleH5971 of the landH776 have practicedH6231 12oppressionH6233 and committedH1497 robberyH1498, and they have wrongedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34 and have 13oppressedH6231 the sojournerH1616 withoutH3808 justiceH4941.
