Key Passages
I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab, and I will wipe out Jerusalem as one wipes out a bowl—wiping it and turning it upside down.
I will make justice the measuring lineand righteousness the level.Hail will sweep away your refuge of lies,and water will flood your hiding place.
