Ezekiel 22:23-25

New Century Version

Sins of the People

²³ The Lord spoke his word to me, saying: ²⁴ “Human, say to the land, ‘You are a land that has not had rain or showers when God is angry.’ ²⁵ Like a roaring lion that tears the animal it has caught, Israel’s rulers make evil plans. They have destroyed lives and have taken treasure and valuable things. They have caused many women to become widows.
