The adulterers' lifestyles are evil, and they use their strength for what is not right. 11 Indeed, both priest and prophet are ungodly. Even in my house I find evil," declares the LORD. 12 Therefore their way will be slippery. They'll be driven out into the darkness, where they'll fall. For I'll bring disaster on them, the year of their judgment," declares the LORD.
