You are guilty in your blood that you have shed; and you have defiled yourself in your idols you have made. And your days are brought near, and have come to your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all lands. Those who are near and those far from you shall mock against you, O defiled of name, abounding in tumult. read more.
