The Fall of Jerusalem

21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year ^aof our captivity, in the tenth month, on the fifth day of the month, ^bthat one who had escaped from Jerusalem came to me and said, ^c“The city has been captured!”

22 Now ^athe hand of the Lord had been upon me the evening before the man came who had escaped. And He had ^bopened my mouth; so when he came to me in the morning, my mouth was opened, and I was no longer mute.

The Cause of Judah’s Ruin

23 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

24 “Son of man, ^athey who inhabit those ^bruins in the land of Israel are saying, ^c‘Abraham was only one, and he inherited the land. ^dBut we are many; the land has been given to us as a ^epossession.’

25 “Therefore say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: ^a“You eat meat with blood, you ^blift up your eyes toward your idols, and ^cshed blood. Should you then possess the ^dland?

26 You rely on your sword, you commit abominations, and you ^adefile one another’s wives. Should you then possess the land?” ’
