5. No one will take pity on you, Jerusalem.No one will mourn for you.No one will bother to ask how you are doing.
6. You have left me,” declares the Lord.“You have turned your back on me.So I will use my power against you and destroy you.I’m tired of showing compassion to you.
7. “I will separate them with a winnowing shovel at the city gates.I will make them childless.I will destroy my people because they will not change their ways.
8. Their widows will be more numerousthan the grains of sand on the seashore.At noontime I will send a destroyer against the mothers of young men.I will suddenly bring anguish and terror to them.
