Ezekiel 22:12

Highlighting The Sins And The Judgments Of Israel

¹¹ One of you commits detestable practices with his neighbor's wife. Another sexually defiles his daughter-in-law. Another humiliates his sister, his own father's daughter. ¹² They take bribes among you to shed blood. You've taken usury and exacted interest. You've gained control over your neighbor through extortion. And you've forgotten me," declares the Lord GOD. ¹³ "Watch out! I'm vehemently angry about the unjust gains that you've earned, and about the blood that has been shed among you.
