2. but you prefer to do evilinstead of what is right.You skin my people alive.You strip off their flesh,
3. break their bones,cook it all in a pot,and gulp it down.
4. Some day you will beg the Lordto help you,but he will turn awaybecause of your sins.
5. You lying prophets promisesecurity for anyonewho gives you food,but disaster for anyonewho refuses to feed you.Here is what the Lord saysto you prophets:
6. “You will live in the dark,far from the sight of the sun,with no message from me.
7. You prophets and fortune-tellerswill all be disgraced,with no message from me.”
