Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 18 of 23
"And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive unto you?"
In context
16, the prophets of Israel which prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and no peace, saith the Lord GOD.
17Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them,
18And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive unto you?
19And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear lies?
20Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, the souls that ye hunt to make fly.
