They shall strike the land, and I will not deliver them out of their hand. 7 So I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock.

My soul loathed them, and their soul also abhorred me. 9 Then I said, I will not feed you. Let what dies die, and what is to be cut off, let it be cut off. Let those that remain eat each other's flesh.
