Ezekiel 33:30-32

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³⁰ “As for you, son of man, your people who talk together about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses, say to one another, each to his brother, ‘Come, and hear what the word is that comes forth from the Lord.’ ³¹ And they come to you as people come, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear what you say but they will not do it; for with their lips they show much love, but their heart is set on their gain. ³² And lo, you are to them like one who sings love songs^[a] with a beautiful voice and plays well on an instrument, for they hear what you say, but they will not do it.
