Ezekiel 22:1 In-Context

2 And thou, son of man, wilt thou judge, wilt thou judge the bloody city? then cause her to know all her abominations.

3 And thou shalt say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: A city that sheddeth blood in the midst of her, that her time may come, and that maketh idols against herself to defile her!

5 Those that are near, and those that are far from thee, shall mock thee, thou infamous one [and] full of tumult.
