Ezekiel 22:27-30

27Her princesH8269 in the midstH7130 thereof are like wolvesH2061 raveningH2963 the preyH2964, to shedH8210 bloodH1818, and to destroyH6 soulsH5315, to getH1214 dishonest gainH1215.

28And her prophetsH5030 have daubedH2902 them with untemperedH8602 morter, seeingH2374 vanityH7723, and diviningH7080 liesH3577 unto them, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069, when YhwhH3068 hath not spokenH1696.

29The peopleH5971 of the landH776 have used oppressionH6233H6231, and exercisedH1497 robberyH1498, and have vexedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34: yea, they have oppressedH6231 the strangerH1616 wrongfullyH4941.12

30And I soughtH1245 for a manH376 among them, that should make upH1443 the hedgeH1447, and standH5975 in the gapH6556 beforeH6440 me for the landH776, that I should not destroyH7843 it: but I foundH4672 none.
