Lamentations 4:13-15

Tree of Life Version

¹³ Yet it happened because of the sins of her prophets,
    and the iniquities of her kohanim,
who shed in her midst
    the blood of the tzadikim^[a].
¹⁴ They wander in the streets,
    like blind men.
They are so defiled with blood,
    no one can touch their garments.
¹⁵ “Turn away! Unclean!”
    They cry to them.
“Turn away, turn away! Don’t touch!”
    So they fled and wandered about.
People among the nations say,
    “They can stay here no longer.”
