Yechezkel 36:17-19

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁷ Ben adam, when Bais Yisroel dwelt in their own land, they made it tameh by their own derech and by their doings; their derech was before Me as the tumat haniddah (contamination of a woman during her menstrual period).

¹⁸ Therefore I poured My chemah upon them for their shefach dahm upon ha’aretz, for their gillulim wherewith they had made it tameh;

¹⁹ And I scattered them among the Goyim, and they were dispersed through the countries; according to their derech and according to their doings I judged them.
