Yahweh's Avenging Messenger Destroys The Wicked In The City

8 While they were out carrying out the executions, I was left alone. So I fell on my face and cried out, "O Lord GOD, are you going to destroy all of the survivors of Israel when you pour out your anger on Jerusalem?" 9 "The house of Israel and Judah is guilty and theirs is a stubborn guilt, at that!" he replied to me. "The land is filled with blood, and the city overflows with injustice, because they keep saying, "The LORD has abandoned the land,' and "The LORD isn't watching.' 10 So as for me, I'm not going to show pity, and I won't look in their direction with mercy. I'm repaying them for what they have done."
