H5414Therefore will I give[H8799] H802their wivesH312unto othersH7704, and their fieldsH3423to them that shall inherit[H8802] H6996them : for every one from the leastH1419even unto the greatestH1214is given[H8802] H1215to covetousnessH5030, from the prophetH3548even unto the priestH6213every one dealeth[H8802] H8267falsely.
H7218The headsH8199thereof judge[H8799] H7810for rewardH3548, and the priestsH3384thereof teach[H8686] H4242for hireH5030, and the prophetsH7080thereof divine[H8799] H3701for moneyH8172: yet will they lean[H8735] H3068upon the LORDH559, and say[H8800] H3068, Is not the LORDH7130amongH7451us? none evilH935can come[H8799] upon us.
H3318If I go forth[H8804] H7704into the fieldH2491, then behold the slainH2719with the swordH935! and if I enter[H8804] H5892into the cityH8463, then behold them that are sickH7458with famineH5030! yea, both the prophetH3548and the priestH5503go about[H8804] H776into a landH3045that they know[H8804] not.
H935And they come[H8799] H5971unto thee as the peopleH3996comethH3427, and they sit[H8799] H6440beforeH5971thee as my peopleH8085, and they hear[H8804] H1697thy wordsH6213, but they will not do[H8799] H6310them: for with their mouthH6213they shew[H8802] H5690much loveH3820, but their heartH1980goeth[H8802] H310afterH1215their covetousness.
H7451Because of all the evilH1121of the childrenH3478of IsraelH1121and of the childrenH3063of JudahH6213, which they have done[H8804] H3707to provoke me to anger[H8687] H4428, they, their kingsH8269, their princesH3548, their priestsH5030, and their prophetsH376, and the menH3063of JudahH3427, and the inhabitants[H8802] H3389of Jerusalem.
