blood.

doom by
shedding blood within her walls and making idols to
defile herself,

blood that thou hast shed; and hast
defiled thyself in thine idols which thou hast made; and thou hast caused thy days to draw near, and art come even unto thy years: therefore have I made thee a reproach unto the heathen, and a
mocking to all countries.

mockery to all the lands.

blood. You
engage in
usury, take excess interest, and
extort your neighbors. But Me you have forgotten, declares the Lord GOD.

smitten mine hand at thy
dishonest gain which thou hast made, and at thy
blood which hath been in the midst of thee.

blood, and to destroy souls, to get
dishonest gain.

bloody city, to the pot whose
scum is therein, and whose
scum is not gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall up on it.

For the blood she shed is still within her; she poured it out on the bare rock; she did not pour it on the ground to cover it with dust.
That it might cause
fury to come up to take
vengeance; I have set her
blood upon the top of a rock, that it should not be covered.
In order to
stir up wrath and take
vengeance, I have placed her
blood on the bare rock, so that it would not be covered.’
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD;
Woe to the
bloody city! I will even make the pile for fire great.

pestilence, and
blood into her street; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

warning, and the sword comes and takes him away, his
blood will be on his own head.
He heard the sound of the
trumpet, and took not
warning; his
blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh
warning shall deliver his soul.
Since he heard the sound of the horn but failed to
heed the
warning, his
blood will be on his own head. If he had
heeded the
warning, he would have saved his life.
But if the
watchman see the sword come, and blow not the
trumpet, and the people be not
warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his
blood will I require at the
watchman’s hand.
But if the
watchman sees the sword coming and fails to blow the horn to
warn the people, and the sword comes and takes away a life, then that one will be taken away in his iniquity, but I will hold the
watchman accountable for his
blood.’
When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die; if thou
dost not speak to
warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his
blood will I require at thine hand.

dissuade him from his way, then that wicked man will die in his iniquity, yet I will hold you accountable for his
blood.

Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the
blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their
calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:
Because you
harbored an ancient hatred and delivered the Israelites over to the sword in the time of their
disaster at the final stage of their punishment,
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will prepare thee unto
blood, and
blood shall pursue thee:
sith thou hast not
hated blood, even
blood shall pursue thee.
therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will give you over to
bloodshed and it will pursue you. Since you did not
hate bloodshed, it will pursue you.
Wherefore I poured my
fury upon them for the
blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols
wherewith they had
polluted it:

blood they had shed on the land, and because they had
defiled it with their idols.

blood.

sacrificial feast that I am preparing for you, a great feast on the mountains of Israel. There you will eat flesh and drink

blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of
Bashan.

cleanse the altar and make
atonement for it.

uncircumcised in both heart and flesh to occupy My sanctuary; you
defiled My temple when you offered My food—the fat and the
blood; you broke My covenant.

But the
Levitical priests, who are descended from
Zadok and who kept charge of My sanctuary when the Israelites went
astray from Me, are to approach Me to minister before Me. They will stand before Me to offer Me fat and
blood, declares the Lord GOD.

Ephraim
provoked him to anger most bitterly: therefore shall he leave his
blood upon him, and his reproach shall his Lord return unto him.
Ephraim has
provoked bitter anger, so his Lord will leave his
bloodguilt upon him and repay him for his contempt.
And I will
shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth,
blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke.
The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.
The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to
blood before the coming of the great and
awesome Day of the LORD.
