“Thus says the Lord of hosts, Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another,

These are the things that you shall do: Speak the truth to one another; render in your gates judgments that are true and make for peace;

do not devise evil in your hearts against one another, and love no false oath, for all these things I hate, declares the Lord.”

So I said, “I will not be your shepherd. What is to die, let it die. What is to be destroyed, let it be destroyed. And let those who are left devour the flesh of one another.”
