"See, the rulers of Israel, every one in his family, have been causing death in you."
— Ezekiel 22:6, Bible in Basic English
“Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their power to shed blood.”
“Behold, the princes of Israel, every one according to his power, have been in thee to shed blood. ”
“Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone according to his power, have been in you to shed blood.”
“Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their power to shed blood.”
And you are to say, This is what the Lord has said: A town causing blood to be drained out in her streets so that her time may come, and making images in her to make her unclean!
You are responsible for the blood drained out by you, and you are unclean through the images which you have made; and you have made your day come near, and the time of your judging has come; for this cause I have made you a name of shame to the nations and a cause of laughing to all countries.
Those who are near and those who are far from you will make sport of you; your name is unclean, you are full of sounds of fear.
See, the rulers of Israel, every one in his family, have been causing death in you.
In you they have had no respect for father and mother; in you they have been cruel to the man from a strange land; in you they have done wrong to the child without a father and to the widow.
You have made little of my holy things, and have made my Sabbaths unclean.
In you there are men who say evil of others, causing death; in you they have taken the flesh with the blood for food; in your streets they have put evil designs into effect.
