Ezekiel 33:30

Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.

Ver. 30. The children of thy people.] These captives in Babylon, no whit better than those in Jewry.

Still are talking.] Detracting from thee, and deriding thee.

By the walls.] Susurros miscentes clancularios; fearing lest any one behind them should hear them, they get the walls at their backs.

Come, I pray you, and hear.] Thus they jeer; a and there are too many such scoffers at this day.
