⁴ When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

³ For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.

³⁴ Also in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents: I have not found it by secret search, but upon all these.

²³ Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.

² By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.

²¹ For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the Lord dwelleth in Zion.
