Ezekiel 13:17-23

17Likewise, thou sonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 against the daughtersH1323 of thy peopleH5971, who prophesyH5012 out of their own heartH3820; and prophesyH5012 thou against them, 18And sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; WoeH1945 to the women that sewH8609 magic charmsH3704 on all wristsH679H3027, and makeH6213 kerchiefsH4555 upon the headH7218 of every statureH6967 to huntH6679 soulsH5315! Will ye huntH6679 the soulsH5315 of my peopleH5971, and will ye saveH2421 the soulsH5315 aliveH2421 that come to you?1 19And will ye profaneH2490 me among my peopleH5971 for handfulsH8168 of barleyH8184 and for piecesH6595 of breadH3899, to slayH4191 the soulsH5315 that should not dieH4191, and to saveH2421 the soulsH5315 aliveH2421 that should not liveH2421, by your lyingH3576 to my peopleH5971 that hearH8085 your liesH3577? 20Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I am against your magic charmsH3704, by which yeH859 there huntH6679 the soulsH5315 to make them flyH6524, and I will tearH7167 them from your armsH2220, and will let the soulsH5315 goH7971, even the soulsH5315 that ye huntH6679 to make them flyH6524.2 21Your kerchiefsH4555 also will I tearH7167, and deliverH5337 my peopleH5971 out of your handH3027, and they shall no more be in your handH3027 to be huntedH4686; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068. 22Because with liesH8267 ye have made the heartH3820 of the righteousH6662 sadH3512, whom I have not made sadH3510; and strengthenedH2388 the handsH3027 of the wickedH7451, that he should not returnH7725 from his wickedH7563 wayH1870, by promising him lifeH2421:3 23Therefore ye shall seeH2372 no more vanityH7723, nor divineH7080 divinationsH7081: for I will deliverH5337 my peopleH5971 out of your handH3027: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
