5 As que estão perto e as que estão longe de ti escarnecerão de ti, [que és] imunda de nome, e cheia de inquietação.

6 Eis que os príncipes de Israel, cada um conforme seu poder, estiveram em ti para derramarem sangue.

7 Desprezaram ao pai e à mãe em ti; trataram ao estrangeiro com opressão no meio de ti; oprimiram ao órfão e à viúva em ti.

8 Desprezaste minhas coisas santas, e profanaste meus sábados.

9 Caluniadores houve em ti, para derramarem sangue; e comeram sobre os montes em ti; praticaram lascívia no meio de ti.
