Lamentations 4:13-15

Expanded Bible

¹³ It happened because her prophets sinned
    and her priests did evil [Jer. 1:17–19; 2:7–8, 26; 4:9; 13:12–14].
They ·killed [^Lpoured out blood] in ·the city [^Lits midst]
    ·those who did what was right [the righteous].

¹⁴ They wandered in the streets
    as if they were blind.
They were ·dirty [defiled; ^Cin a ritual sense] with blood [^Cas if covered with menstrual blood; Lev. 15],
    so no one ·would [was able to] touch their clothes.

¹⁵ “·Go away [Turn aside]! ·You are unclean [^LUnclean!; ^Cin a ritual sense],” people shouted at them.
    “·Get away [Turn aside]! ·Get away [Turn aside]! Don’t touch us!”
So they ran away and wandered.
    Even the other nations said, “Don’t stay here.”
