13 “I saw the prophets of Samaria doing wrong things.
    I saw them prophesy in the name of the false god Baal.
    They led the people of Israel away from me.
14 I have even seen the prophets of Jerusalem doing sinful things.
    They are committing adultery and living a life of lies.
They support their fellow prophets
    and never stop doing evil.
They have become like Sodom;
    they are all like Gomorrah.”

15 So this is what the Lord All-Powerful says about those Jerusalem prophets:
“I will make them suffer.
    Their food will be bitter, their water like poison.
I will punish them because they started a spiritual sickness
    that spread through the whole country.”

13 “Among the prophets of Samaria
    I saw this repulsive thing:
They prophesied by Baal(A)
    and led my people Israel astray.(B)
14 And among the prophets of Jerusalem
    I have seen something horrible:(C)
    They commit adultery and live a lie.(D)
They strengthen the hands of evildoers,(E)
    so that not one of them turns from their wickedness.(F)
They are all like Sodom(G) to me;
    the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”(H)

15 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says concerning the prophets:

“I will make them eat bitter food
    and drink poisoned water,(I)
because from the prophets of Jerusalem
    ungodliness(J) has spread throughout the land.”
