Ezekiel 33:29-31

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁹ Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I make the land a desolation and a waste because of all their abominations which they have committed.”’

³⁰ “But as for you, son of man, ^[a]your fellow citizens who talk about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, speak to one another, each to his brother, saying, ‘^(A)Come now and hear what the ^[b]message is which comes forth from the Lord.’ ³¹ They come to you as people come, and sit before you as My people and hear your words, but they do not do them, for they do the lustful desires expressed by their ^(B)mouth, and their heart goes after their ^(C)gain.
