Ezekiel 13:17-19

17“Now you, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who are 1talking like prophets 2from their own 3imagination. Prophesy against them 18and say, ‘This is what the Lord God says: “Woe to the women who sew magic bands on 4all wrists and make veils for the heads of persons of every stature to 5capture souls! Will you capture the souls of My people, but keep the souls of others alive for yourselves? 196For handfuls of barley and pieces of bread, you have profaned Me to My people, to put to death 7some who should not die, and to 8keep 9others alive who should not live, by your lying to My people who listen to lies.”’”
