1Then the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 2“SonH1121 of manH120, 1makeH3045 knownH3045 to JerusalemH3389 her abominationsH8441 3and sayH559, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 2GodH3068 to JerusalemH3389, “Your originH4351 and your birthH4138 are from the landH776 of the CanaaniteH3669, your fatherH1 was an AmoriteH567 and your motherH517 a HittiteH2850. 4As for your birthH4138, 3on the dayH3117 you were bornH3205 your navelH8270 cordH8270 was not cutH3772, norH3808 were you washedH7364 with waterH4325 for cleansingH4935; you were not rubbedH4414 with saltH4414 or even wrappedH2853 in clothsH2853. 5NoH3808 eyeH5869 lookedH2347 with pityH2347 on you to doH6213 anyH259 of theseH428 thingsH428 for you, to haveH2550 compassionH2550 on you. Rather you were thrownH7993 out into the 45openH6440 fieldH7704, 6for you were abhorredH1604 on the dayH3117 you were bornH3205.
6“When I passedH5674 by you and sawH7200 you squirmingH947 in your bloodH1818, I saidH559 to you while you were in your bloodH1818, ‘LiveH2421!’ Yes, I saidH559 to you while you were in your bloodH1818, ‘LiveH2421!’ 7I 7madeH5414 you 8numerousH7233 like plantsH6780 of the fieldH7704. Then you grewH7235 up, becameH1431 tallH1431 and reachedH935 the ageH935 for fineH5716 ornamentsH5716; your breastsH7699 were formedH3559 and your hairH8181 had grownH6779. Yet you were nakedH5903 and bareH6181.
