For also the prophets, also the priests were polluted; also in my house I found their evil, says Jehovah.

For all the evil of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah which they did to irritate me, they, their kings, their chiefs, their priests, and their prophets, and the man Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
