16. And escaped away have their fugitives, And they have been on the mountains As doves of the valleys, All of them make a noising--each for his iniquity.
17. All the hands are feeble, and all knees go--waters.
18. And they have girded on sackcloth, And covered them hath trembling, And unto all faces [is] shame, And on all their heads--baldness.
19. Their silver into out-places they cast, And their gold impurity becometh. Their silver and their gold is not able to deliver them, In a day of the wrath of Jehovah, Their soul they do not satisfy, And their bowels they do not fill, For the stumbling-block of their iniquity it hath been.
20. As to the beauty of his ornament, For excellency He set it, And the images of their abominations, Their detestable things--they made in it, Therefore I have given it to them for impurity,
21. And I have given it into the hand of the strangers for a prey, And to the wicked of the land for a spoil, And they have polluted it.
22. And I have turned My face from them, And they have polluted My hidden place, Yea, come into it have destroyers, and polluted it.
