13“ ‘This is what the Almighty Lord says: People say that you devour your people and take the children away from your nation. 14So you will no longer devour your people or take the children away from your nation, declares the Almighty Lord. I will no longer let you hear the insults from the nations. You will no longer suffer the disgrace of the people. You will never again take the children away from your own nation, declares the Almighty Lord.’ ” 16The Lord spoke his word to me. He said, 17“Son of man, when the people of Israel lived in their land, they dishonored it by the way they lived and by everything they did. Their ways were as unclean as a woman’s menstrual period.
