11Completed hath Jehovah His fury, He hath poured out the fierceness of His anger, And he kindleth a fire in Zion, And it devoureth her foundations.
12Believe not did the kings of earth, And any of the inhabitants of the world, That come would an adversary and enemy Into the gates of Jerusalem.
13Because of the sins of her prophets, The iniquities of her priests, Who are shedding in her midst the blood of the righteous,
14They have wandered naked in out-places, They have been polluted with blood, Without [any] being able to touch their clothing,
15`Turn aside -- unclean,` they called to them, `Turn aside, turn aside, touch not,` For they fled -- yea, they have wandered, They have said among nations: `They do not add to sojourn.`
16The face of Jehovah hath divided them, He doth not add to behold them, The face of priests they have not lifted up, Elders they have not favoured.
17While we exist -- consumed are our eyes for our vain help, In our watch-tower we have watched for a nation [that] saveth not.
