15. And I will scatter thee among the nations, and disperse thee through the countries; and I will consume thy filthiness out of thee.
16. And thou shalt be profaned in thyself, in the sight of the nations; and thou shalt know that I am Jehovah.
17. And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
18. Son of man, the house of Israel is become dross unto me: all of them are brass and tin and iron and lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are the dross of silver.
19. Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because ye are all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
