3 And I said, “Now listen,
you leaders of Jacob
and rulers of the house of Israel:
Is it not for you to understand justice?
2 Those who hate good
and love evil,
those who tear off their skin from off them
their flesh from their bones—
3 those who eat the flesh of my people,
and their skin from off them, they tear off
and their bones, they break
and chop them in pieces,
just like a pot,
and as meat in the midst of a cauldron.
4 Then they will cry out to Yahweh,
but he will not answer them.
He will hide his face from them at that time,
because they have done evil deeds.”
5 Thus Yahweh says against the prophets,
who lead my people astray,
who bite with their teeth,
they proclaim, ‘Peace.’
and who do not give in their mouths,
they consecreate against him war. 6 Therefore, it will be night for you without a vision;
it will be dark for you, without divination.
The sun will go down on the prophets,
and the day will be dark on them.
7 The seers will be put to shame,
and the diviners will be disgraced.
They will cover their lips, all of them,
for there is no answer from God.”
8 But, I am full of power by the Spirit of Yahweh,
and justice and strength,
to declare to Jacob his transgression,
and to Israel his sin.
9 Now listen to this,
you leaders of the house of Jacob,
and rulers of the house of Israel,
you who detest justice,
and all that is upright, they make crooked.
10 who build Zion with blood
and Jerusalem with iniquity.
11 Her leaders judge for a bribe,
her priests teach for a price,
and her prophets do divination for money.
Yet on Yahweh, they lean saying,
“Is not Yahweh in our midst?
No evil will come on us.”
12 Therefore, because of you,
Zion will become a plowed field,
Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble,
and the hill of the temple will become a thicket.
