2 you who hate good and love evil;who tear the skin from my peopleand the flesh from their bones;
3 who eat my people’s flesh,strip off their skinand break their bones in pieces;who chop them up like meat for the pan,like flesh for the pot.’
4 Then they will cry out to the Lord,but he will not answer them.At that time he will hide his face from thembecause of the evil they have done.
5 This is what the Lord says:‘As for the prophetswho lead my people astray,they proclaim “peace”if they have something to eat,but prepare to wage war against anyonewho refuses to feed them.
6 Therefore night will come over you, without visions,and darkness, without divination.The sun will set for the prophets,and the day will go dark for them.
7 The seers will be ashamedand the diviners disgraced.They will all cover their facesbecause 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 transgression,to Israel his sin.
