² Then the Lord spoke his word to me. He said: ³ “Human being, these men love to worship idols. They put up evil things that cause people to sin. Should I allow them to ask me for help? ⁴ So speak to them. Tell them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: Any person in Israel might want to worship idols. He might even put up evil things that cause people to sin. Then he might come to the prophet. When he does, I, the Lord, will answer him. I will put him to death because he worshiped idols.
