26:022:019 Therefore thus saith the Lord god; Because ye are all become
           dross, behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of
           Jerusalem.

26:022:020 As they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin,
           into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to
           melt it; so will I gather you in mine anger and in my fury,
           and I will leave you there, and melt you.

26:022:021 Yea, I will gather you, and blow upon you in the fire of my
           wrath, and ye shall be melted in the midst therof.

26:022:022 As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye
           be melted in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I the
           lord have poured out my fury upon you.

26:022:023 And the word of the lord came unto me, saying,

26:022:024 Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not
           cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.

26:022:025 There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof,
           like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured
           souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they
           have made her many widows in the midst thereof.

26:022:026 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy
           things:  they have put no difference between the holy and
           profane, neither have they shewed difference between the
           unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my
           sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

26:022:027 Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the
           prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest
           gain.

26:022:028 And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter,
           seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith
           the Lord god, when the lord hath not spoken.

26:022:029 The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised
           robbery, and have vexed the poor and needy:  yea, they have
           oppressed the stranger wrongfully.

26:022:030 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the
           hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I
           should not destroy it:  but I found none.

26:022:031 Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them; I have
           consumed them with the fire of my wrath:  their own way have I
           recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord god.

26:023:001 The word of the lord came again unto me, saying,

26:023:002 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother: 

26:023:003 And they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed
           whoredoms in their youth:  there were their breasts pressed,
           and there they bruised the teats of their virginity.
