22 I will avert my face from them,
    so that they may profane my treasured[a] place;
the violent shall enter it,
    they shall profane it.
23 Make a chain![b]
For the land is full of bloody crimes;
    the city is full of violence.
24 I will bring the worst of the nations
    to take possession of their houses.
I will put an end to the arrogance of the strong,
    and their holy places shall be profaned.
