6“BeholdH2009, the 1rulersH5387 of IsraelH3478, eachH376 according to his 2powerH2220, have beenH1961 among you for the purposeH4616 of sheddingH8210 bloodH1818. 7They have 3treatedH7043 fatherH1 and motherH517 withH7043 contemptH7043 among you. They have oppressedH6213H6233 the 4strangerH1616 in your midstH8432; they have oppressedH3238 the 5orphanH3490 and the widowH490 among you. 8You have 6despisedH959 My holyH6944 thingsH6944 and 7profanedH2490 My SabbathsH7676. 9SlanderousH7400 menH376 have beenH1961 among you for the purposeH4616 of sheddingH8210 bloodH1818, and among you they have eatenH398 at the mountainH2022 shrines. In your midstH8432 they have 8committedH6213 outrageousH2154 sinH2154. 10Among you 9they have 10uncoveredH1540 their fathers’H1 nakednessH6172; among you they have abusedH6031 her who was 11uncleanH2931 in her menstruationH5079. 11And oneH376 has committedH6213 abominationH8441 with his 12neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802, anotherH376 has outrageouslyH2154 defiledH2930 his 13daughter-in-lawH3618, and anotherH376 among you has sexually 14abusedH6031 his sisterH269, his father’sH1 daughterH1323. 12Among you they have 15takenH3947 bribesH7810 to shedH8210 bloodH1818; you have takenH3947 1617interestH5392H8636, you have injuredH1214 your neighborsH7453 by 18oppressionH6233, and you have 19forgottenH7911 Me,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.

13“BeholdH2009, then, I strikeH5221 with My handH3709 your 20profitH1215 whichH834 you have madeH6213 and 21the bloodshedH1818 whichH834 is amongH8432 you. 14Can 22your heartH3820 endureH5975, orH518 can your handsH3027 be strongH2388 for the daysH3117 that I will dealH6213 with you? 23I, the LordH3068, have spokenH1696 and will actH6213. 15And I will 24scatterH6327 you among the nationsH1471 and disperseH2219 you among the landsH776, and I will 25eliminateH8552 your uncleannessH2932 from you. 16Then you will defileH2490 yourself in the sightH5869 of the nationsH1471, and you will 26knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068.”’”
