You want to control the lives of my people for your own profit. ¹⁹ For handfuls of barley and fragments of bread, you have profaned Me to My people to put to death some who should not die and to keep others alive who should not live, by your lying to My people who listen to lies.”’” ²⁰ This is what the Lord Jehovah says: 'I am against the magic charms that you use to trap people like birds. I will tear them from your arms and free the people that you have trapped.
