- Jerusalem:
- "See,ª° I have this¹ dayª setª° thee over¹ the nationsª and over¹ the kingdoms,ª to root out,ª° and to pull down,ª° and to destroy,ª° and to throw down,ª° to build,ª° and to plant.ª°" {Jer 1:10} + "And say,ª° Hearª° ye the wordª of the LORD,ª O kingsª of Judah,ª and inhabitantsª° of Jerusalem;ª Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts,ª the Godª of Israel;ª Behold,¹ I will bringª° evilª upon¹ this¹ place,ª the which¹ whosoever¹ heareth,ª° his earsª shall tingle.ª° ... And I will cause them to eatª°¹ the fleshª of their sonsª and the fleshª of their daughters,ª and they shall eatª° every oneª the fleshª of his friendª in the siegeª and straitness,ª wherewith¹ their enemies,ª° and they that seekª° their lives,ª shall straitenª° them." {Jer 19:3-9} + "And I will smiteª°¹ the inhabitantsª° of this¹ city,ª both manª and beast:ª they shall dieª° of a greatª pestilence.ª ... For¹ I have setª° my faceª against this¹ cityª for evil,ª and not¹ for good,ª saithª° the LORD:ª it shall be givenª° into the handª of the kingª of Babylon,ª and he shall burnª° it with fire.ª" {Jer 21:6-10} + "Thou hast shewedª° thy peopleª hard¹ things:² thou hast made us to drinkª° the wineª of astonishment.ª" {Psa 60:3} + "Awake,ª° awake,ª° stand up,ª° O Jerusalem,ª which¹ hast drunkª° at the handª¹ of the LORDª¹ the cupª of his fury;ª thou hast drunkenª°¹ the dregsª of the cupª of trembling,ª [and] wrung [them] out.ª° ... Thus¹ saithª° thy Lordª the LORD,ª and thy Godª [that] pleadeth²° the cause¹ of his people,ª Behold,¹ I have taken¹ out²° of thine handª¹¹ the cupª of trembling,ª [even]¹ the dregsª of the cupª of my fury;ª thou shalt no¹ moreª° drink¹ it again:²°¹" {Isa 51:17-22} + "And to the othersª he saidª° in mine hearing,ª Goª° ye afterª him through the city,ª and smite:ª° let not¹ your eyeª spare,ª° neither¹ have ye pity:ª° ... And it came to pass,¹ while they were slayingª° them, and I¹ was left,ª° that I fellª° upon¹ my face,ª and cried,ª° and said,ª° Ahª Lordª GOD!ª wilt thou¹ destroyª°¹ all¹ the residueª of Israelª in thy pouring outª°¹ of thy furyª upon¹ Jerusalem?ª" {Ezk 9:5-8} + "And he hath confirmedª°¹ his words,ª which¹ he spakeª° against¹ us, and against¹ our judgesª° that¹ judgedª° us, by bringingª° upon¹ us a greatª evil:ª for¹ under¹ the whole¹ heavenª hath not¹ been doneª° as¹ hath been doneª° upon Jerusalem.ª" {Dan 9:12} + "But I will sendª° a fireª upon Judah,ª and it shall devourª° the palacesª of Jerusalem.ª" {Ams 2:5} + "You only¹ have I knownª° of all¹¹ the familiesª of the earth:ª therefore¹¹ I will punishª°¹ you¹ for all¹ your iniquities.ª" {Ams 3:2} + "Forª the¹ timeª [is come] that judgmentª must beginª° atª the¹ houseª of God:ª andª ifª [it] firstª [begin] atª us,ª whatª shall the¹ endª [be] of them that obey notª° the¹ gospelª of God?ª" {1Pe 4:17}
