- Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the LORD's house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
 - Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:
 - Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the caldron, and we be the flesh.
 - Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.
 - And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.
