'Shedding' in the Bible
You shall say, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “A city shedding blood in her midst, so that her time will come, and that makes idols, contrary to her interest, for defilement!
“Behold, the rulers of Israel, each according to his power, have been in you for the purpose of shedding blood.
Slanderous men have been in you for the purpose of shedding blood, and in you they have eaten at the mountain shrines. In your midst they have committed acts of lewdness.
Her princes within her are like wolves tearing the prey, by shedding blood and destroying lives in order to get dishonest gain.
