13 Because of the sins of her prophets, || The iniquities of her priests, || Who are shedding in her midst the blood of the righteous, 14 They have wandered naked in out-places, || They have been defiled with blood, || Without [any] being able to touch their clothing, 15 “Turn aside—unclean,” they called to them, || “Turn aside, turn aside, do not touch,” || For they fled—indeed, they have wandered, || They have said among nations: “They do not add to sojourn.” 16 The face of YHWH has divided them, || He does not add to behold them, || They have not lifted up the face of priests, || They have not favored [the] old and elderly.
