So I destroyed them in My anger.Now let them remove their prostitution and the corpses of their kings far from Me, and I will dwell among them forever.

Zephaniah 3:1-5
Woe to the city that is rebellious and defiled, the oppressive city!She has not obeyed; she has not accepted discipline. She has not trusted in Yahweh; she has not drawn near to her God.The princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are wolves of the night, which leave nothing for the morning.Her prophets are reckless— treacherous men. Her priests profane the sanctuary; they do violence to instruction.The righteous Lord is in her; He does no wrong. He applies His justice morning by morning; He does not fail at dawn, yet the one who does wrong knows no shame.

You sat waiting for them beside the highways like a nomad in the desert. You have defiled the land with your prostitution and wickedness.
