Lord give us a heart for your people, thought of good and not evil.
Eze 22:24-30 EE
‘Son of man, speak to the land. Say, “I am angry and I will not send you any rain.” 25 Your leaders agree to hurt people. They take valuable things from the people and they kill many women’s husbands. They are like wild animals that tear up their meat. 26 The priests do not obey my rules. They do not use my holy things as they should. They think that holy things are not special. They teach men that pure things and things that are not pure are the same. They do not teach men to keep my Sabbath holy. Because of this, men do not give me any honour. 27 Their officers are like wild animals that tear their meat. They do not judge in a fair way. And they kill people to get their money. 28 Their prophets say that they are not doing any wrong thing. But those prophets see false dreams and they tell false stories. They say, “This is what the Lord, your King says.” But I have not spoken to them. 29 The people in this country make people afraid and take their money. They are not kind to poor people or to those people who are weak. They hurt foreigners and they do not judge them in a fair way. 30 I tried to find a man who would help me to save the land. Then I would not have to destroy it. But I could not find a man to help me.
