1. And then in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, men from the elders of Israel came to consult Yahweh, and they sat before me.
2. And the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
3. “Son of man, speak with the elders of Israel, and you must say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Are you coming to consult me? As I live, I will surely not allow myself to be consulted by you!” ’ declares the Lord Yahweh.
4. Will you judge them? Will you judge them, son of man? Make known to them the detestable things of their ancestors.
