I said, "Please listen, you heads of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel: Isn't it for you to know justice?
You who hate the good, and love the evil; who tear off their skin, and their flesh from off their bones;
who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them, and break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.

Thus says Yahweh concerning the prophets who lead my people astray; for those who feed their teeth, they proclaim, "Peace!" and whoever doesn't provide for their mouths, they prepare war against him:

The seers shall be disappointed, and the diviners confounded. Yes, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer from God."
