Sins of Jerusalem
1 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Now, son of man, awill you judge, will you judge bthe bloody city? Yes, show her all her abominations!
3 Then say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “The city sheds ablood in her own midst, that her time may come; and she makes idols within herself to defile herself.
4 You have become guilty by the blood which you have ashed, and have defiled yourself with the idols which you have made. You have caused your days to draw near, and have come to the end of your years; btherefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mockery to all countries.
5 Those near and those far from you will mock you as1 infamous and full of tumult.
6 “Look, athe princes of Israel: each one has used his1 power to shed blood in you.
7 In you they have amade light of father and mother; in your midst they have boppressed the stranger; in you they have mistreated the1 fatherless and the widow.
8 You have despised My holy things and aprofaned My Sabbaths.
