Ezekiel 22:25-27
Christian Standard Bible
25 The conspiracy of her prophets(A) within her is[a] like a roaring lion tearing its prey: they devour people, seize wealth and valuables, and multiply the widows within her. 26 Her priests do violence to my instruction and profane my holy things.(B) They make no distinction between the holy and the common, and they do not explain the difference between the clean and the unclean.(C) They close their eyes to my Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
27 “Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey, shedding blood, and destroying lives in order to make profit dishonestly.
