Open this scene in the reader →1And the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2And you, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? Then make known to her all her abominations.
3And say, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: O city that sheds blood in her midst, so that her time may come, and that makes idols against herself to defile herself!’
4By your blood that you have shed, you have become guilty, and by your idols that you have made, you have become unclean. You have brought your days near and have come to your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations and a mockery to all the lands.
5Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you, defiled of name, full of turmoil.
