Ezekiel 22:29 in Context — Ezekiel 22

27 Seus príncipes no meio dela são como lobos que arrebatam presa para derramarem sangue, para destruírem almas, para obterem lucro desonesto.

28 E seus profetas os rebocam com cal solta, profetizando-lhes falsidade, e adivinhando- lhes mentira, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS; sem que o SENHOR tenha falado.

29 O povo da terra faz graves extorsões, e pratica roubos; fazem violência ao aflito e necessitado, e oprimem sem motivo ao estrangeiro.

30 E busquei dentre eles um homem que tapasse o muro, e que se pusesse na brecha diante de mim pela terra, para que eu não a destruísse; porém a ninguém achei.

31 Por isso derramarei sobre eles minha indignação; com o fogo de minha ira os consumirei; retribuirei o caminho deles sobre suas [próprias] cabeças,diz o Senhor DEUS.
