2 You hate good and love evil.You strip the skin off my people and the flesh off their bones.
3 You eat my people’s flesh.You strip off their skin.You break their bones to pieces.You chop them up like meat for a pot, like stew meat for a kettle.
4 Then you will cry to the Lord,but he will not answer you.He will hide his face from you at that timebecause you have done evil things.
5 This is what the Lord says about the prophets who mislead my people:When they have something to eat, they say, “All is well!”But they declare a holy war against those who don’t feed them.
6 That is why you will have nights without visions.You will have darkness without revelations.The sun will set on the prophets,and the day will turn dark for them.
7 Seers will be put to shame.Those who practice witchcraft will be disgraced.All of them will cover their faces, because God won’t answer them.
8 But I am filled with the power of the Lord’s Spirit,with justice, and with strength.So I will tell ⌊the descendants of⌋ Jacob about their crimesand ⌊the nation of⌋ Israel about its sins.
