Ezekiel:22:3-7

*
Then say thou ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ,
The city sheddeth blood in the midst of it ,
that her time may come ,
and maketh idols against herself to defile herself .
*
Thou art become guilty in thy blood that thou hast shed ;
and hast defiled thyself in thine idols which thou hast made ;
and thou hast caused thy days to draw near ,
and art come even unto thy years :
therefore have I made thee a reproach unto the heathen ,
and a mocking to all countries .
*
Those that be near ,
and those that be far from thee ,
shall mock thee ,
which art infamous tame #
and much vexed .
*
Behold ,
the princes of Israel Yisra #
el #,
every one were in thee to their power to shed blood .
*
In thee have they set light by father and mother :
in the midst of thee have they dealt by oppression with the stranger :
in thee have they vexed the fatherless and the widow .
