The calamity of the Jews, both dead and alive.1 ¶ At that² time,º saithºª the LORD,º they shall bring outºª² the bonesº of the kingsº of Judah,º and the bonesº of his princes,º and the bonesº of the priests,º and the bonesº of the prophets,º and the bonesº of the inhabitantsºª of Jerusalem,º out of their graves:º² 2 And they shall spreadºª them before the sun,º and the moon,º and all² the hostº of heaven,º whom² they have loved,ºª and whom² they have served,ºª and afterº whom² they have walked,ºª and whom² they have sought,ºª and whom² they have worshipped:ºª they shall not² be gathered,ºª nor² be buried;ºª they shall be² for dungº upon² the faceº of the earth.º 3 And deathº shall be chosenºª rather than lifeº² by all² the residueº of them that remainºª of² this² evilº family,º which remainºª in all² the placesº whither²² I have drivenºª them, saithºª the LORDº of hosts.º [1] 1K 13:2; 2K 23:16, 20; 2Ch 34:4; Jr 7:32; Ezk 6:5; 37:1; Am 2:1.
