26:022:003 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.

26:022:004 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.

26:022:005 Those that be near, and those that be far from thee, shall
           mock thee, which art infamous and much vexed.

26:022:006 Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their
           power to shed blood.

26:022:007 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.

26:022:008 Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my
           sabbaths.

26:022:009 In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood:  and in thee
           they eat upon the mountains:  in the midst of thee they commit
           lewdness.

26:022:010 In thee have they discovered their fathers’ nakedness:  in thee
           have they humbled her that was set apart for pollution.

26:022:011 And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour’s wife;
           and another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and
           another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father’s
           daughter.

26:022:012 In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken
           usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy
           neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord
           god.

26:022:013 Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest
           gain which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in
           the midst of thee.

26:022:014 Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong, in the
           days that I shall deal with thee?  I the lord have spoken it,
           and will do it.

26:022:015 And I will scatter thee among the heathen, and disperse thee
           in the countries, and will consume thy filthiness out of thee.

26:022:016 And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in the sight
           of the heathen, and thou shalt know that I am the lord.

26:022:017 And the word of the lord came unto me, saying,

26:022:018 Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross:  all
           they are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of
           the furnace; they are even the dross of silver.
