Ezekiel 33:29-31

Easy-to-Read Version

²⁹ The people have done many terrible things, so I will make that place an empty wasteland. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”

³⁰ “‘And now about you, son of man. Your people lean against the walls and stand in their doorways talking about you. They tell each other, “Come on, let’s go hear what the Lord says.” ³¹ So they come to you as if they were my people. They sit in front of you as if they were my people. They hear your words, but they will not do the things you say. They only want to do what feels good. They only want to cheat people and make more money.
