Ezekiel 22:25

---

← Ezekiel 22:24	Ezekiel 22:25 (KJV)	Ezekiel 22:26 →
Son of man, say unto her, Thou [art] the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.	[There is] a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.	Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed [difference] between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
