13. Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because they say unto you, Thou land art a devourer of men, and hast been a bereaver of thy nation;
14. therefore thou shalt devour men no more, neither bereave thy nation any more, saith the Lord Jehovah;
15. neither will I let thee hear any more the shame of the nations, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the peoples any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nation to stumble any more, saith the Lord Jehovah.
16. Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
17. Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their way and by their doings: their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity.
18. Wherefore I poured out my wrath upon them for the blood which they had poured out upon the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols;
19. and I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.
20. And when they came unto the nations, whither they went, they profaned my holy name; in that men said of them, These are the people of Jehovah, and are gone forth out of his land.
21. But I had regard for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, whither they went.
