וַתְּחַלֶּלְ֨נָה אֹתִ֜י אֶל־עַמִּ֗י בְּשַׁעֲלֵ֣י שְׂעֹרִים֮ וּבִפְת֣וֹתֵי לֶחֶם֒ לְהָמִ֤ית נְפָשׁוֹת֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא־תְמוּתֶ֔נָה וּלְחַיּ֥וֹת נְפָשׁ֖וֹת אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹא־תִֽחְיֶ֑ינָה בְּכַ֨זֶּבְכֶ֔ם לְעַמִּ֖י שֹׁמְעֵ֥י כָזָֽב׃ (ס)
Kamu telah mencemarkan Aku di tengah umat-Ku demi segenggam jelai dan sepotong roti, dengan mematikan jiwa-jiwa yang tidak seharusnya mati dan menghidupkan jiwa-jiwa yang tidak seharusnya hidup, melalui dustamu kepada umat-Ku yang suka mendengarkan dusta.
