So ^(C)Israel will become a proverb and a byword among all peoples. ⁸ And this house will become ^[b](D)a heap of ruins; everyone who passes by will be astonished and hiss and say, ‘^(E)Why has the Lord done thus to this land and to this house?’

¹⁸ For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “As My ^(A)anger and wrath have been poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so My wrath will be poured out on you when you enter Egypt. And you will become a ^(B)curse, an object of horror, an imprecation and a reproach; and ^(C)you will see this place no more.”
