H9002–/וְ–v

Son of man, when the children of Israel were living in their land, they made it unclean by their way and their acts: their way before me was as when a woman is unclean at the time when she is kept separate.

וּבַעֲלִֽילוֹתָ֑ם (וּ) u. “and”

So I let loose my wrath on them because of those whom they had violently put to death in the land, and because they had made it unclean with their images:

וּבְגִלּוּלֵיהֶ֖ם (וּ) u. “and”

And I sent them in flight among the nations and wandering through the countries: I was their judge, rewarding them for their way and their acts.

וְכַעֲלִילוֹתָ֖ם (וְ) ve. “and”

And when they came among the nations, wherever they went, they made my holy name unclean, when it was said of them, These are the people of the Lord who have gone out from his land.

And I will make you free from all your unclean ways: and at my voice the grain will come up and be increased, and I will not let you be short of food.

וְלֹא־ (וְ) ve. “and”

And I will make the tree give more fruit and the field fuller produce, and no longer will you be shamed among the nations for need of food.

And at the memory of your evil ways and your wrongdoings, you will have bitter hate for yourselves because of your evil-doings and your disgusting ways, O children of Israel.
