1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O princes of Jacob, and ye heads of the house of Israel. Did it not pertain to you to know that which is right?
2 Who hate the good, and love the evil, who steal their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
3 and eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones and chop them in pieces as for the pot and as flesh within the caldron.
4 Then they shall cry unto the Lord, but he will not respond to them: he will even hide his face from them at that time because of their evil doings.
5 Thus hath the Lord said concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that does not give them something to eat, they even prepare war against him.
