Ezekiel 11:2-4
Easy-to-Read Version
2 Then God spoke to me and said, “Son of man,[a] these are the men who make evil plans for this city. They always tell the people to do evil things. 3 These men say, ‘We will be building our houses again very soon. We are as safe in this city as meat in a pot!’ 4 So you must speak to the people for me. Son of man, prophesy against the people.”
