5 Thus says the Lord concerning the prophetsWho make my people stray;Who chant “Peace”While they chew with their teeth,But who prepare war against himWho puts nothing into their mouths:
6 “Therefore you shall have night without vision,And you shall have darkness without divination;The sun shall go down on the prophets,And the day shall be dark for them.
7 So the seers shall be ashamed,And the diviners abashed;Indeed they shall all cover their lips;For there is no answer from God.”
8 But truly I am full of power by the Spirit of the Lord,And of justice and might,To declare to Jacob his transgressionAnd to Israel his sin.
9 Now hear this,You heads of the house of JacobAnd rulers of the house of Israel,Who abhor justiceAnd pervert all equity,
10 Who build up Zion with bloodshedAnd Jerusalem with iniquity:
