“As for the prophets
    who lead my people astray,^(A)
they proclaim ‘peace’^(B)
    if they have something to eat,
but prepare to wage war against anyone
    who refuses to feed them.
⁶ Therefore night will come over you, without visions,
    and darkness, without divination.^(C)
The sun will set for the prophets,^(D)
    and the day will go dark for them.^(E)
7 The seers will be ashamed^(F)
    and the diviners disgraced.^(G)
They will all cover^(H) their faces^(I)
    because there is no answer from God.^(J)”
⁸ But as for me, I am filled with power,
    with the Spirit of the Lord,
    and with justice and might,
to declare to Jacob his transgression,
    to Israel his sin.^(K)

⁹ Hear this, you leaders of Jacob,
    you rulers of Israel,
who despise justice
    and distort all that is right;^(L)
10 who build^(M) Zion with bloodshed,^(N)
    and Jerusalem with wickedness.^(O)
11 Her leaders judge for a bribe,^(P)
    her priests teach for a price,^(Q)
    and her prophets tell fortunes for money.^(R)
Yet they look^(S) for the Lord’s support and say,
    “Is not the Lord among us?
    No disaster will come upon us.”^(T)
12 Therefore because of you,
    Zion will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble,^(U)
    the temple^(V) hill a mound overgrown with thickets.^(W)
