Ezekiel 36:17-20

17 (A)“Son of man, when the house of Israel lived in their own land, (B)they defiled it by their ways and their deeds.

(H)In accordance with their ways and their deeds I judged them. 20 But when they came to the nations, wherever they came, (I)they profaned my holy name, in that people said of them, ‘These are the people of the Lord, and yet they had to go out of his land.’

Lamentations 4:13-15
English Standard Version
13 This was for (A)the sins of her prophets
and (B)the iniquities of her priests,
who shed in the midst of her
the blood of the righteous.
14 (C)They wandered, blind, through the streets;
they were so defiled with blood
(D)that no one was able to touch
their garments.
15 “Away! (E)Unclean!” people cried at them.
“Away! Away! Do not touch!”
So they became fugitives and wanderers;
people said among the nations,
“They shall stay with us no longer.”
Lamentations 2:16-17

16 (A)All your enemies
rail against you;
they hiss, they gnash their teeth,
they cry: “We (B)have swallowed her!
Ah, this is the day we longed for;
now we have it; (C)we see it!”
17 The Lord has done what he purposed;
he has carried out (D)his word,
which he commanded (E)long ago;
(F)he has thrown down (G)without pity;
(H)he has made the enemy rejoice over you
and exalted the (I)might of your foes.
