3. You eat my people’s flesh.You strip off their skin.You break their bones to pieces.You chop them up like meat for a pot, like stew meat for a kettle.
4. Then you will cry to the Lord,but he will not answer you.He will hide his face from you at that timebecause you have done evil things.
5. This is what the Lord says about the prophets who mislead my people:When they have something to eat, they say, “All is well!”But they declare a holy war against those who don’t feed them.
6. That is why you will have nights without visions.You will have darkness without revelations.The sun will set on the prophets,and the day will turn dark for them.
7. Seers will be put to shame.Those who practice witchcraft will be disgraced.All of them will cover their faces, because God won’t answer them.
8. But I am filled with the power of the Lord’s Spirit,with justice, and with strength.So I will tell ⌊the descendants of⌋ Jacob about their crimesand ⌊the nation of⌋ Israel about its sins.
