Ezekiel 22:24-26

Common English Bible

²⁴ Human one, say to her, You are an unclean land without rain on the day of reckoning. ²⁵ The conspiracy of princes^[a] in her is like a roaring lion ripping up prey. They’ve piled up wealth and precious goods and made many widows in her. ²⁶ Her priests have done violence to my instructions and made my holy things impure. They have not clearly separated the holy from the ordinary, and they have not taught the difference between unclean and clean things. They’ve disregarded my sabbaths. So I’ve been degraded among them.
