³⁹ And those of you who are left shall ^(A)rot away in your enemies' lands because of their iniquity, and also because of the iniquities of their fathers they shall rot away like them.

¹⁷ I will do this that they may lack bread and water, and ^(A)look at one another in dismay, and ^(B)rot away because of their punishment.

Why Will You Die, Israel?

¹⁰ “And you, ^(A)son of man, say to the house of Israel, Thus have you said: ‘Surely our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and ^(B)we rot away because of them. ^(C)How then can we live?’

^23 (A)Your turbans shall be on your heads and your shoes on your feet; you shall not mourn or weep, but ^(B)you shall rot away in your iniquities and groan to one another.

⁹ then those of you who escape ^(A)will remember me among the nations where they are carried captive, how ^(B)I have been broken over their whoring heart that has departed from me and over their eyes ^(C)that go whoring after their idols. ^(D)And they will be loathsome in their own sight for the evils that they have committed, for all their abominations.

⁶⁵ And ^(A)among these nations you shall find no respite, and there shall be no resting place for the sole of your foot, but ^(B)the Lord will give you there a trembling heart and failing eyes and ^(C)a languishing soul.

⁸ as it is written,

⁹ And David says,

³⁵ so that on you may come all ^(A)the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous ^(B)Abel to the blood of ^(C)Zechariah the son of Barachiah,^[a] whom you murdered between ^(D)the sanctuary and ^(E)the altar. ³⁶ Truly, I say to you, ^(F)all these things will come upon this generation.
