3 break their bones,cook it all in a pot,and gulp it down.
4 Some day you will beg the Lordto help you,but he will turn awaybecause of your sins.
5 You lying prophets promisesecurity for anyonewho gives you food,but disaster for anyonewho refuses to feed you.Here is what the Lord saysto you prophets:
6 “You will live in the dark,far from the sight of the sun,with no message from me.
7 You prophets and fortune-tellerswill all be disgraced,with no message from me.”
8 But the Lord has filled mewith power and his Spirit.I have been given the courageto speak about justiceand to tell you people of Israelthat you have sinned.
9 So listen to my message,you rulers of Israel!You hate justiceand twist the truth.
