Ezekiel 11:3-5

Living Bible

³ For they say to the people, ‘It is time to rebuild Jerusalem, for our city is an iron shield and will protect us from all harm.’^{[a] 4} Therefore, son of dust, prophesy against them loudly and clearly.”

⁵ Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon me and told me to say: “The Lord says to the people of Israel: Is that what you are saying? Yes, I know it is, for I know everything you think—every thought that comes into your minds.
