Ezekiel 22:5

[Those that be] near, and [those that be] far from thee, shall mock thee, [which art] infamous [and] much vexed.

Those that be near {H7138}, and those that be far {H7350} from thee, shall mock {H7046} thee, which art infamous {H2931}{H8034} and much {H7227} vexed {H4103}.

Those close by and those far off will taunt you, you who have such a defiled reputation and such great disorder.

Those near and far will mock you, O infamous city, full of turmoil.

Those that are near, and those that are far from thee, shall mock thee, thou infamous one and full of tumult.
