Ezekiel 14:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 For each person[a] from the house of Israel, and from the alien who dwells as an alien in Israel, who separates himself from following me[b] and brings up his idols into his heart and places before himself[c] a stumbling block of his guilt[d], and yet he comes to the prophet to consult him concerning me, I Yahweh will answer[e] him myself. 8 And I will set my face against that person, and I will make him to[f] be a sign and make him into[g] the subject of proverbs; and I will cut him off from the midst of my people, and you will know I am Yahweh. 9 And the prophet, if he is deceived and he speaks a word, I Yahweh, I have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand against him, and I will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
