Ezekiel 33:30-33
Lexham English Bible
30 “And you, son of man,[a] your people,[b] the ones talking together concerning you beside the walls and in the doorways of the houses, each one with his brother saying,[c] ‘Please come and hear what is the word that is going out from Yahweh.’[d] 31 And they come to you as people do,[e] and they sit before you,[f] and my people hear your words, and they do not do them, for they are showing[g] passion in their mouth, but their heart is going after ill-gotten gain. 32 Now, look! You are to them like a sensual song,[h] beautiful of voice and played well on an instrument,[i] and they hear your words, but they are not doing them.[j] 33 So[k] when it comes,[l] look! It is coming! And then they will know that a prophet was in the midst of them.”
