Ezekiel 22:14

Synd

¹² In you they take bribes to shed blood. You engage in usury, take excess interest, and extort your neighbors. But Me you have forgotten, declares the Lord GOD.

¹³ Now look, I strike My hands together against your unjust gain and against the blood you have shed in your midst.

Will your courage endure or your hands be strong in the day I deal with you? I, the LORD, have spoken, and I will act.

¹⁵ I will disperse you among the nations and scatter you throughout the lands; I will purge your uncleanness.

¹⁶ And when you have defiled yourself in the eyes of the nations, then you will know that I am the LORD.’”

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
