Ezekiel 13:17 in Context — Ezekiel 13

15 Assim cumprirei meu furor contra a parede, e contra os que a rebocaram com lodo solto; e vos direi: Já não há a parede, nem os que a rebocavam,

16 Os profetas de Israel que profetizam sobre Jerusalém, e veem para ela visão de paz, sem que haja paz,diz o Senhor DEUS.

17 E tu, filho do homem, dirige teu rosto às filhas de teu povo que profetizam de seu [próprio] coração, e profetiza contra elas,

18 E dize: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Ai daquelas que costuram almofadas para todos os pulsos, e fazem lenços sobre as cabeças de todos os tamanhos para caçarem as almas! Por acaso caçareis as almas de meu povo, e guardareis a vossas [próprias] almas em vida?

19 Vós me profanastes para com meu povo por punhados de cevada e por pedaços de pão, matando as almas que não deviam morrer, e mantendo em vida as almas que não deviam viver, mentindo a meu povo, que escuta a mentira.
