21. “For death has come up into our windows;and has entered our palaces,to cut off the children from the streets,and the young men from the squares.”
22. Speak, Thus says the Lord: “The carcasses of men shall fallas dung upon the open field,and as the sheaf after the harvester,and no one shall gather them.”
23. Thus says the Lord: Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom,and let not the mighty man glory in his might,let not the rich man glory in his riches;
24. but let him who glories glory in this,that he understands and knows Me,that I am the Lord who exercises lovingkindness,justice, and righteousness in the earth.For in these things I delight,says the Lord.
25. The days are surely coming, says the Lord, that I will punish all who are circumcised and yet uncircumcised—
