1Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
— Ezekiel 16:3 —
4And as for thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to supple thee; thou wast not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
5None eye pitied thee, to do any of these unto thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out in the open field, to the lothing of thy person, in the day that thou wast born.
