Ezekiel 22:6-14

NSB(i) 6 »‘»See how all the princes of Israel who live in you have used their power to shed blood (murder people). 7 »‘»People in you hate their fathers and mothers. They oppress foreigners in you. They oppress orphans and widows in you.«’« 8 »You have despised my holy things and dishonored (profaned the Sabbath) the day to worship me. 9 »Your people tell lies about others in order to have them put to death. They eat sacrifices offered to idols. They always satisfy their lusts. 10 »Some of them sleep with their father's wife. Some force women to have intercourse with them during their period. 11 »Some commit adultery, and others seduce their daughters-in-law or their half sisters. 12 »Some of your people murder for pay. Some charge interest on the loans they make to other Israelites and get rich by taking advantage of them. They have forgotten me. The Lord Jehovah has spoken. 13 ‘»I strike my fist at your dishonest gain and your acts of bloodshed. 14 ‘»Can your heart endure? Will your hands be strong in the days that I will deal with you? I, Jehovah, have spoken and will act.
