37 And thou shalt become an ^aastonishment, a ^bproverb, and a ^cbyword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee.

  15 So it shall be a ^areproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I shall execute judgments in thee in anger and in fury and in furious rebukes. I the Lord have spoken it.

  17 Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, ^aweep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy ^bpeople, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to ^creproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?

  16 ¶ For the statutes of ^aOmri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a ^bdesolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the ^creproach of my people.

  14 And because they turn their hearts aside, saith the prophet, and have ^adespised the Holy One of Israel, they shall wander in the flesh, and perish, and become a ^bhiss and a ^cbyword, and be ^dhated among all nations.
