1
Then some of the leaders of Israel visited me, and while they were there,
2
this message came to me from the LORD:
3
"Son of man, these leaders have set up idols in their hearts. They have embraced things that lead them into sin. Why should I let them ask me anything?
4
Give them this message from the Sovereign LORD: I, the LORD, will punish the people of Israel who set up idols in their hearts so they fall into sin and then come to a prophet asking for help.
5
I will do this to capture the minds and hearts of all my people who have turned from me to worship their detestable idols.
6
"Therefore, give the people of Israel this message from the Sovereign LORD: Repent and turn away from your idols, and stop all your loathsome practices.
