Ezekiel 22:6-12
New King James Version
6 “Look, (A)the princes of Israel: each one has used his [a]power to shed blood in you. 7 In you they have (B)made light of father and mother; in your midst they have (C)oppressed the stranger; in you they have mistreated the [b]fatherless and the widow. 8 You have despised My holy things and (D)profaned My Sabbaths. 9 In you are (E)men who slander to cause bloodshed; (F)in you are those who eat on the mountains; in your midst they commit lewdness. 10 In you men (G)uncover their fathers’ nakedness; in you they violate women who are (H)set apart during their impurity. 11 One commits abomination (I)with his neighbor’s wife; (J)another lewdly defiles his daughter-in-law; and another in you violates his sister, his father’s (K)daughter. 12 In you (L)they take bribes to shed blood; (M)you take usury and increase; you have made profit from your neighbors by extortion, and (N)have forgotten Me,” says the Lord God.
