8 therefore, thus says the Lord God: See, I am coming against you! I will carry out judgments among you while the nations look on.
9 Because of all your abominations I will do to you what I have never done before, the like of which I will never do again.
10 Therefore, parents will eat their children in your midst, and children will eat their parents. I will inflict punishments upon you and scatter all who remain to the winds.
11 Therefore, as I live, says the Lord God, because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your atrocities and all your abominations, I will surely withdraw and not look upon you with pity nor spare you.
12 A third of your people shall die of disease or starve to death within you; another third shall fall by the sword all around you; a third I will scatter to the winds and pursue them with the sword.
13 Thus my anger will spend itself; I will vent my wrath against them until I am satisfied. Then they will know that I the Lord spoke in my passion when I spend my wrath upon them.
14 I will make you a desolation and a reproach among the nations around you, in the sight of every passerby.
