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

Verse 5 is found in chapter 22 of Ezekiel. Jerusalem is presented as a bloodshed-filled city whose corruption has made it guilty before God. Its abominations have brought contempt among the nations. The city’s reputation is presented not as honor but as the consequence of conduct that has profaned its identity.

In der Nähe und in der Ferne sollen sie dein spotten, daß du ein schändlich Gerücht haben und großen Jammer leiden müssest.
Las que están cerca, y las que están lejos de ti, se reirán de ti, amancillada de fama, y de grande turbación.
Las que están cerca de ti y las que están lejos se burlarán de ti, ciudad de nombre impuro, llena de confusión.
Ceux qui sont près et ceux qui sont au loin se moqueront de toi, qui es souillée de réputation et pleine de trouble.
I paesi che son vicini, e quelli che son lontani di te, si faran beffe di te, o tu contaminata di fama, grande in ruina.
As que estão perto de ti e as que estão longe escarnecerão de ti, infamada, cheia de inquietação.
你這惡名昭彰、混亂的城啊,離你或遠或近的國家都必譏誚你。
