3 You shall say, Thus says the Lord God: A city that sheds blood in her midst, so that her time may come, and that makes idols to defile herself!

4 You have become guilty by the blood that you have shed, and defiled by the idols that you have made, and you have brought your days near, the appointed time of¹ your years has come. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mockery to all the countries.

25 Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord God: You eat flesh with the ^xblood and ^ylift up your eyes to your idols and shed blood; shall you then possess the land?
