Lamentations 4:13-15

Revised Standard Version

¹³ This was for the sins of her prophets
    and the iniquities of her priests,
who shed in the midst of her
    the blood of the righteous.

¹⁴ They wandered, blind, through the streets,
    so defiled with blood
that none could touch
    their garments.

¹⁵ “Away! Unclean!” men cried at them;
    “Away! Away! Touch not!”
So they became fugitives and wanderers;
    men said among the nations,
    “They shall stay with us no longer.”
