Ezekiel 13:22 in Context — Ezekiel 13

20 Por isso assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Eis que eu contra vossas almofadas, com que caçais as almas como [se fossem] pássaros; eu as arrancarei de vossos braços, e soltarei as almas, as almas que caçais como pássaros.

21 E rasgarei vossos lenços, e livrarei meu povo de vossas mãos, e não mais estarão em vossas mãos para serem caçadas; e sabereis que eu sou o SENHOR.

22 Pois com mentira entristecestes o coração do justo, ao qual eu não lhe causei dor, e fortalecestes as mãos do perverso, para que não se desviasse de seu mau caminho para se manter vivo;

23 Portanto não mais vereis falsidade, nem mais adivinhareis adivinhação. Mas livrarei meu povo de vossas mãos, e sabereis que eu sou o SENHOR.
