57 before your wickedness was uncovered. It was like the time of the areproach of the daughters of Syria and all those around her, and of bthe daughters of the Philistines, who despise you everywhere.

62 aAnd I will establish My covenant with you. Then you shall know that I am the Lord,  
63 that you may aremember and be ashamed, band never open your mouth anymore because of your shame, when I provide you an atonement for all you have done,” says the Lord God.’ ”
