3 who eat the flesh of my people,and flay their skin from off them,and break their bones in piecesand chop them up like meat in a pot,like flesh in a cauldron.
4 Then they will cry to the Lord,but he will not answer them; he will hide his face from them at that time,because they have made their deeds evil.
5 Thus says the Lord concerning the prophetswho lead my people astray, who cry “Peace”when they have something to eat,but declare war against himwho puts nothing into their mouths.
6 Therefore it shall be night to you, without vision,and darkness to you, without divination. The sun shall go down on the prophets,and the day shall be black over them;
7 the seers shall be disgraced,and the diviners put to shame; they shall all cover their lips,for there is no answer from God.
8 But as for me, I am filled with power,with the Spirit of the Lord,and with justice and might,to declare to Jacob his transgressionand to Israel his sin.
9 Hear this, you heads of the house of Jacoband rulers of the house of Israel, who detest justiceand make crooked all that is straight,
