Ezekiel 11:1-3

Darby Translation

11 And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of Jehovah's house, which looketh eastward; and behold, at the door of the gate were five and twenty men; and I saw in the midst of them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.

² And he said unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise iniquity, and give wicked counsel in this city:

³ who say, It is not the time to build houses: this is the cauldron, and we are the flesh.
