27. and so you gave your city over into the hands of your enemies.

29. For it came to pass when I came hither, that I saw also impieties without number, and my soul saw many evil-doers in this thirties year, so that my heart failed me.
30. For I have seen how you suffer them sinning, and have spared the ungodly doers, and have destroyed your people, and have preserved your enemies; and you have not signified
31. to any how your way may be comprehended. Are the deeds of Babylon better than those of Sion?
