<p class="bodytext">&#8220;Therefore this is what the sovereign <sc>Lordsc> says: Because you have forgotten me and completely disregarded me,<n id="1" /> you must bear now the punishment<n id="2" /> for your obscene conduct and prostitution.&#8221;p>

When he brought me there, I saw<n id="1" /> a man whose appearance was like bronze, with a linen cord and a measuring stick in his hand. He was standing in the gateway.

Then your survivors will remember me among the nations where they are exiled. They will realize<n id="1" /> how I was crushed by their unfaithful<n id="2" /> heart which turned from me and by their eyes which lusted after their idols. They will loathe themselves<n id="3" /> because of the evil they have done and because of all their abominable practices.

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;Therefore, speak to the house of Israel, son of man, and tell them, &#8216;This is what the sovereign <sc>Lordsc> says: In this way too your fathers blasphemed me when they were unfaithful to me.
