4 And the LORD said to him, Go through in the midst of the city, in the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men who are groaning and are mourning because of all the abominations that are done in her midst.5 And He said to those in my hearing, Go over in the city after him, and strike. Let not your eye spare, nor have pity.6 Fully destroy old [men], young men and virgins, and little children and women. But do not come near any man on whom [is] the mark. And begin at My sanctuary. And they began at the old men who [were] before the house.
