Ezekiel 22:25-29
25There is a 1conspiracyH7195 of her prophetsH5030 in her midstH8432 like a roaringH7580 lionH738 tearingH2963 the preyH2964. They have 2devouredH398 livesH5315; they have takenH3947 treasureH2633 and preciousH3366 thingsH3366; they have madeH7235 manyH7235 3widowsH490 in the midstH8432 of her.
26Her 4priestsH3548 have doneH2554 violenceH2554 to My LawH8451 and have 5profanedH2490 My holyH6944 thingsH6944; they have madeH914 noH3808 6distinctionH914 betweenH996 the holyH6944 and the 7commonH2455, and they have not taughtH3045 the difference betweenH996 the 8uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889; and they have closedH5956 their eyesH5869 from My SabbathsH7676, and I am defiledH2490 amongH8432 them.
27Her leadersH8269 withinH7130 her are like wolvesH2061 tearingH2963 the preyH2964, by sheddingH8210 bloodH1818 and 9destroyingH6 livesH5315 inH4616 orderH4616 toH4616 makeH1214 10dishonestH1215 profitH1215.
28And her prophetsH5030 have coatedH2902 with whitewashH8602 for them, seeingH2372 11falseH7723 visionsH2372 and diviningH7080 liesH3577 for them, sayingH559, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559,’ when the LordH3068 has not spokenH1696.
29The peopleH5971 of the landH776 have practicedH6231 12extortionH6233 and committedH1497 robberyH1498, and they have oppressedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34, and have 13oppressedH6231 the strangerH1616 withoutH3808 justiceH4941.
