New Testament

Ezekiel 22:6-15 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

6. Lo, princes of Israel--each according to his arm Have been in thee to shed blood.

7. Father and mother made light of in thee, To a sojourner they dealt oppressively in thy midst, Fatherless and widow they oppressed in thee.

8. My holy things thou hast despised, And My sabbaths thou hast polluted.

9. Men of slander have been in thee to shed blood, And on the mountains they have eaten in thee, Wickedness they have done in thy midst.

10. The nakedness of a father hath one uncovered in thee, The defiled of impurity they humbled in thee.

11. And each with the wife of his neighbour hath done abomination, And each his daughter-in-law hath defiled through wickedness, And each his sister, his father's daughter, hath humbled in thee.

12. A bribe they have taken in thee to shed blood, Usury and increase thou hast taken, And cuttest off thy neighbour by oppression, And Me thou hast forgotten, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!

13. And lo, I have smitten My hand, Because of thy dishonest gain that thou hast gained, And for thy blood that hath been in thy midst.

14. Doth thy heart stand--are thy hands strong, For the days that I am dealing with thee? I, Jehovah, have spoken and have done [it].

15. And I have scattered thee among nations, And have spread thee out among lands, And consumed thy uncleanness out of thee.
