Ezekiel 22:26

26 Her apriests have done violence to My law and have bprofaned My holy things; they have made no cseparation between the holy and the profane, and they have not made known the difference between the dunclean and the clean; and they hide their eyes from My sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

Hosea 5:1


Yahweh Withdraws from Israel

Hear this, O priests!
Give heed, O house of Israel!
Give ear, O house of the king!
For the judgment is for you,
For you have been a asnare at Mizpah
And a net spread out on Tabor.

Hosea 6:9


9
And as araiders wait for a man,
So a band of priests bmurder on the way to Shechem;
Surely they have committed clewdness.

Micah 3:11


11
Her heads pronounce ajudgment for a bribe,
And her bpriests instruct for a price,
And her prophets divine for money.
Yet they lean on Yahweh saying,
“cIs not Yahweh in our midst?
Evil will not come upon us.”

Zephaniah 3:4


4
Her prophets are areckless, treacherous men;
Her bpriests have profaned the sanctuary.
They have done violence to the law.
