Ezekiel 7:26
Verse 26 of 27. The 7th of 48 chapters in Ezekiel, in The Major Prophets.
22I will also turn my face from them, and they will profane my secret place. Robbers will enter into it, and profane it.
23“‘Make chains, for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.
24Therefore I will bring the worst of the nations, and they will possess their houses. I will also make the pride of the strong to cease. Their holy places will be profaned.
25Destruction comes! They will seek peace, and there will be none.
26Mischief will come on mischief, and rumor will be on rumor. They will seek a vision of the prophet; but the law will perish from the priest, and counsel from the elders.
27The king will mourn, and the prince will be clothed with desolation. The hands of the people of the land will be troubled. I will do to them after their way, and according to their own judgments I will judge them. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
