- "Utterly slay old men, young men, maidens, little children, and women, but do not touch any man on whom is the mark; and you shall start from My sanctuary." So they started with the elders who were before the temple.
- And He said to them, "Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!" Thus they went out and struck down the people in the city.
- As they were striking the people and I alone was left, I fell on my face and cried out saying, "Alas, Lord GOD! Are You destroying the whole remnant of Israel by pouring out Your wrath on Jerusalem?"
- Then He said to me, "The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is very, very great, and the land is filled with blood and the city is full of perversion; for they say, 'The LORD has forsaken the land, and the LORD does not see!'
- "But as for Me, My eye will have no pity nor will I spare, but I will bring their conduct upon their heads."

- 要將年老的、年少的、並處女、嬰孩、和婦女、從聖所起全都殺盡、只是凡有記號的人不要挨近他.於是他們從殿前的長老殺起。
- 他對他們說、要污穢這殿、使院中充滿被殺的人、你們出去罷.他們就出去、在城中擊殺。
- 他們擊殺的時候、我被留下、我就俯伏在地、說、哎、主耶和華阿、你將忿怒傾在耶路撒冷、豈要將以色列所剩下的人都滅絕麼。
- 他對我說、以色列家和猶大家的罪孽、極其重大、遍地有流血的事、滿城有冤屈、因為他們說、耶和華已經離棄這地、他看不見我們.
- 故此、我眼必不顧惜、也不可憐他們、要照他們所行的報應在他們頭上。
