KJV ORIGINAL
And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
Just like gangs of thieves wait to ambush someone on the road, these priests are literally murdering people together — they've turned into a corrupt crew doing the most horrific things.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When religious leaders become the very evil they're supposed to protect people from, that's a whole different level of betrayal.
