    who tear off the skin of my people,[a]
        along with the flesh from their bones.

    flaying their skin from them.

    chopping them in pieces like meat[b] for a pot,
        like meat destined for a soup kettle.’

    but he will not listen to them.
In fact, he will hide his face from them at that time,
    because they were so wicked in what they were doing.”
