14“Also among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen an aappalling thing:

The committing of badultery and walking in lying;

And they strengthen the hands of cevildoers,

So that no one has turned back from his evil.

All of them have become to Me like dSodom,

And her inhabitants like Gomorrah.

But in the prophets of Jerusalem

I have seen a horrible thing:

they commit adultery and walk in lies;

they strengthen the hands of evildoers,

so that no one turns from his evil;

all of them have become like Sodom to me,

and its inhabitants like Gomorrah.”

NIVNew International Version (2011)

And among the prophets of Jerusalem

I have seen something horrible:

They commit adultery and live a lie.

They strengthen the hands of evildoers,

so that not one of them turns from their wickedness.

They are all like Sodom to me;

the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Among the prophets of Jerusalem also

I saw a horrible thing:

They commit adultery and walk in lies.

They strengthen the hands of evildoers,

and none turns his back on evil.

They are all like Sodom to me;

Jerusalem’s residents are like Gomorrah.

NLTNew Living Translation

But now I see that the prophets of Jerusalem are even worse!

They commit adultery and love dishonesty.

They encourage those who are doing evil

so that no one turns away from their sins.

These prophets are as wicked

as the people of Sodom and Gomorrah once were.”

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

And in the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen something horrible.

They commit adultery, and they walk in lies,

and they make strong the hands of evildoers,

so that they have not turned back each from his wickedness.

All of them have become to me like Sodom,

and its inhabitants like Gomorrah.”

KJV 1900King James Version

I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing:

They commit adultery, and walk in lies:

They strengthen also the hands of evildoers,

That none doth return from his wickedness:

They are all of them unto me as Sodom,

And the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
