Lamentations 4:17

13It is because of the sins of her prophets and the iniquities of her priests, that have shed the blood of the just in the middle of her.

14They wander as blind men in the streets. They are polluted with blood, So that men can’t touch their garments.

15“Go away!” they cried to them. “Unclean! Go away! Go away! Don’t touch! When they fled away and wandered, men said among the nations, “They can’t live here any more.”

16The LORD’s anger has scattered them. He will not pay attention to them any more. They didn’t respect the persons of the priests. They didn’t favor the elders.

17Our eyes still fail, looking in vain for our help. In our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save.

18They hunt our steps, so that we can’t go in our streets. Our end is near. Our days are fulfilled, for our end has come.

19Our pursuers were swifter than the eagles of the sky. They chased us on the mountains. They set an ambush for us in the wilderness.

20The breath of our nostrils, the anointed of the LORD, was taken in their pits; of whom we said, under his shadow we will live among the nations.

21Rejoice and be glad, daughter of Edom, who dwells in the land of Uz. The cup will pass through to you also. You will be drunken, and will make yourself naked.
