MLV(i)
26 Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, nor have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean and have hid their eyes from my Sabbaths and I am profaned among them.
27 Her rulers in the midst of it are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain.
28 And her prophets have daubed with untempered mortar for them, seeing false visions and divining lies to them, saying, The lord Jehovah says thus, when Jehovah has not spoken.
29 The people of the land have used oppression and exercised robbery. Yes, they have distressed the poor and needy man and have oppressed the traveler wrongfully.
30 And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none.
31 Therefore I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have brought their own way upon their heads, says the lord Jehovah.
