10. In thee they have discovered their fathers’ nakedness; in thee they have forced the unclean menstruous woman.
11. And one has committed abomination with his neighbour’s wife; and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law; and another in thee has forced his sister, his father’s daughter.
12. In thee they have taken bribes to shed blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion and hast forgotten me, said the Lord GOD.
13. Behold, therefore I have smitten my hand at thy dishonest gain which thou hast made and at thy blood which has been in the midst of thee.
14. 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.
15. And I will scatter thee among the Gentiles and disperse thee in the countries and will consume thy filthiness out of thee.
16. And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in the sight of the Gentiles, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
17. And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
18. Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross; they are all brass and tin and iron and lead in the midst of the furnace; they are become the dross of silver.
19. Therefore thus hath the Lord GOD said: Because ye are all become dross, behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
