Ezekiel 33:30-33
New American Standard Bible
30 “But as for you, son of man, [a]your fellow citizens who talk with one another about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, speak one with another, each with his brother, saying, ‘(A)Come now and hear what the [b]message is that comes from the Lord.’ 31 And 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 follows their unlawful (C)gain. 32 And behold, you are to them like a love song by one who has a (D)beautiful voice and plays well on an instrument; for they hear your words but they do not practice them. 33 So when it (E)comes—[c]as it certainly will—then they will know that a prophet has been among them.”

Ezekiel 33:30-33
New International Version
30 “As for you, son of man, your people are talking together about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses, saying to each other, ‘Come and hear the message that has come from the Lord.’ 31 My people come to you, as they usually do, and sit before(A) you to hear your words, but they do not put them into practice. Their mouths speak of love, but their hearts are greedy(B) for unjust gain.(C) 32 Indeed, to them you are nothing more than one who sings love songs(D) with a beautiful voice and plays an instrument well, for they hear your words but do not put them into practice.(E)
33 “When all this comes true—and it surely will—then they will know that a prophet has been among them.(F)”
