Ezekiel 33:23-26

Common English Bible

²³ The Lord’s word came to me: ²⁴ Human one, those who live among those ruins in Israel’s fertile land are saying, “Abraham was just one man, and he inherited the land. We are many, so certainly the land has been given to us as an inheritance.”

²⁵ So say to them, The Lord God proclaims: You eat with the blood, you lift your eyes to the idols, and you shed blood. Should you inherit the land? ²⁶ You live by the sword, you observe detestable practices, and every one of you commits adultery.^[a] Should you inherit the land?
