Ezekiel 5:7 CPDV

⁵  Thus says the Lord God: 'This is Jerusalem. I have placed her in the midst of the Gentiles and of the lands all around her.

⁶  And she has despised my judgments, so as to be more impious than the Gentiles, and my precepts, more so than the lands that are all around her. For they have cast aside my judgments, and they have not walked in my precepts.'

⁷  For this reason, thus says the Lord God: 'Since you have surpassed the Gentiles who are all around you, and have not walked in my precepts, and have not accomplished my judgments, and have not even acted in accord with the judgments of the Gentiles who are all around you:

⁸  therefore, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, and I myself will accomplish judgments in your midst, in the sight of the Gentiles.

⁹  And I will do in you what I have not done before, and the likes of which I will not do again, because of all your abominations.
