The sins of Israel’s teachers

22:23 The sins of Israel’s teachers

23Then Yahweh gave me another message: 24“Humanity’s child, tell her, ‘You’re a land that hasn’t been cleansed. When you’re judged, there won’t be any rain. 25There’s a conspiracy of her prophets in her midst, like a roaring lion tearing apart a victim. They consume life and take precious wealth—making many widows within her. 26Her priests do violence to my law, and they profane my sacred things. They don’t distinguish between sacred and profane things, and don’t teach the difference between what God approved and what he didn’t. They ignore my rest days so I end up getting mocked among them.[ref] 27Her leaders within her are like wolves tearing apart their victims. They pour out blood and destroy life, just to make a dishonest profit, 28but her prophets have painted them over with whitewash. They see false visions and predict falsehoods to them, saying ‘The master Yahweh says this’ when Yahweh hasn’t spoken. 29The people of the land have oppressed others through extortion and robbery, they mistreat the poor and needy, and they oppress foreigners without any justice. 30Then I searched for an advocate from them who would build up a wall of righteousness and who would admit the breaches made by the country and make an appeal on their behalf so I wouldn’t destroy it, but I didn’t find anyone. 31So I’ll pour my indignation out onto them. I will finish them off with the fire of my indignation and their own deeds will seal their fate. That is the master Yahweh’s declaration.’ ”
