- 要将年老的,年少的,并处女,婴孩,和妇女,从圣所起全都杀尽,只是凡有记号的人不要挨近他。于是他们从殿前的长老杀起。
- 他对他们说,要污秽这殿,使院中充满被杀的人。你们出去吧。他们就出去,在城中击杀。
- 他们击杀的时候,我被留下,我就俯伏在地,说,哎。主耶和华阿,你将忿怒倾在耶路撒冷,岂要将以色列所剩下的人都灭绝麽。
- 他对我说,以色列家和犹大家的罪孽极其重大。遍地有流血的事,满城有冤屈,因为他们说,耶和华已经离弃这地,他看不见我们。
- 故此,我眼必不顾惜,也不可怜他们,要照他们所行的报应在他们头上。

- Slaughter old men, young men and maidens, women and children, but do not touch anyone who has the mark. Begin at my sanctuary." So they began with the elders who were in front of the temple.
- Then he said to them, "Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go!" So they went out and began killing throughout the city.
- While they were killing and I was left alone, I fell facedown, crying out, "Ah, Sovereign LORD! Are you going to destroy the entire remnant of Israel in this outpouring of your wrath on Jerusalem?"
- He answered me, "The sin of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great; the land is full of bloodshed and the city is full of injustice. They say, 'The LORD has forsaken the land; the LORD does not see.'
- So I will not look on them with pity or spare them, but I will bring down on their own heads what they have done."
