Ezekiel 22:6

Highlighting The Sins And The Judgments Of Israel

⁵ Those who are near, and those who are far from you, shall mock you, you infamous one [and] full of tumult. ⁶ Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone according to his power, have been in you to shed blood. ⁷ In you have they set light by father and mother; in the midst of you have they dealt by oppression with the foreigner; in you have they wronged the fatherless and the widow.
