brothers will fight with each other,
as will neighbors,

23:16 “Take the harp,
go through the city,
forgotten prostitute!
Play it well,
play lots of songs,
so you’ll be noticed!”

They will call you, ‘The City of the Lord,
Zion of the Holy One of Israel.’

Put on your beautiful clothes,
O Jerusalem,
For uncircumcised and unclean pagans
will no longer invade you.
