Αμαρτιαν ημαρτησεν η Ιερουσαλημ· δια τουτο εγεινεν ως ακαθαρτος· παντες οι δοξαζοντες αυτην κατεφρονησαν αυτην, διοτι ειδον την ασχημοσυνην αυτης· αυτη δε ανεστεναζε και απεστραφη εις τα οπισω.
Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore she is removed: all that honoured her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yea, she sigheth, and turneth backward.
