5 Thus says Yahweh concerning the prophets who lead my people astray; for those who feed their teeth, they proclaim, 'Peace!' and whoever doesn't provide for their mouths, they prepare war against him:
6 'Therefore night is over you, with no vision, And it is dark to you, that you may not divine; And the sun will go down on the prophets, And the day will be black over them.
7 The seers shall be disappointed, And the diviners confounded. Yes, they shall all cover their lips; For there is no answer from God.'
8 But as for me, I am full of power by the Spirit of Yahweh, And of judgment, and of might, To declare to Jacob his disobedience, And to Israel his sin.
9 Please listen to this, you heads of the house of Jacob, And rulers of the house of Israel, Who abhor justice, And pervert all equity.
