25 (A)The conspiracy of her [a]prophets in her midst is like a roaring lion tearing the prey; they (B)have devoured [b]people; (C)they have taken treasure and precious things; they have made many widows in her midst. 26 (D)Her priests have [c]violated My law and (E)profaned My holy things; they have not (F)distinguished between the holy and unholy, nor have they made known the difference between the unclean and the clean; and they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them. 27 Her (G)princes in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, to shed blood, to destroy [d]people, and to get dishonest gain.
