Ezekiel 22:26-31
English Standard Version
26 (A)Her priests (B)have done violence to my law and (C)have profaned my holy things. (D)They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they taught the difference between the unclean and the clean, and (E)they have disregarded my Sabbaths, (F)so that I am profaned among them. 27 (G)Her princes in her midst are like wolves (H)tearing the prey, (I)shedding blood, destroying lives to get dishonest gain. 28 And (J)her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, (K)seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ when the Lord has not spoken. 29 The people of the land (L)have practiced extortion and committed robbery. They have oppressed the poor and needy, and (M)have extorted from the sojourner without justice. 30 (N)And I sought for a man among them (O)who should build up the wall (P)and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none. 31 Therefore (Q)I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have returned (R)their way upon their heads, declares the Lord God.”

10 (A)Therefore I will give their wives to others

everyone (B)is greedy for unjust gain;

saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
when there is no peace.
12 Were they ashamed when they committed abomination?

when I punish them, they shall be overthrown,
says the Lord.

and those who are guided by them are swallowed up.
