15 Neither will I cause men to hear in thee the shame of the Gentiles any longer, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the peoples any more, neither shalt thou cause the sons of thy inhabitants to die any longer, saith the Lord GOD.
16 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
17 Son of man, the house of Israel which dwells in their land has defiled it with their own ways and with their works; their way was before me as the uncleanness of a menstruous woman.
18 And I poured my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols with which they had polluted it:
19 And I scattered them among the Gentiles, and they were dispersed through the countries; according to their ways and according to their doings I judged them.
20 And when they entered unto the Gentiles, where they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of the Lord and are gone forth out of his land.
21 And it has pained me to see my holy name profaned by the house of Israel among the Gentiles where they went.
