Israel » A type of the apostate church when disobedient » Became a by-word to neighbouring nations
By your blood that you poured out you have become guilty, and by your idols that you made you have become unclean, and you have brought your days near, {and your appointed years have come}. Therefore I have made you a disgrace for the nations and a laughingstock to all of the countries.
And I will make them as a terror, an evil to all the kingdoms of the earth, as a disgrace and a proverb, as a taunt and a curse, in all the places where I will drive them.
And you will become a horror and a proverb and ridicule among all the peoples where Yahweh drives you there.
then I will cut Israel off from the face of the land that I have given to them, [even] the house which I have consecrated for my name I will cast away from my face; and Israel shall become a proverb and an object of taunting among all the peoples.
You have made us a byword among the nations, a shaking of [the] head among [the] peoples.
