1. The Lord spoke his word to me. He said:
2. “Human being, tell Jerusalem about her hated actions.
3. Say, ‘This is what the Lord God says to Jerusalem: Your beginnings and your ancestors were in the land of the Canaanites. Your father was an Amorite. And your mother was a Hittite.
4. On the day you were born, your cord was not cut. You were not washed with water for cleansing. You were not rubbed with salt. You were not wrapped in cloths.
