|
|
# by the blood that you have poured out

# You have drawn your days to a close, and the end of your years has come
|
|
|
|
The images of days being brought to a close and years coming to an end are both idioms representing ending by death or by destruction. By saying that Jerusalem has brough her days to a close, Yahweh implies that Jerusalem would soon be destroyed because of the people's sin. AT: "Because of these things you have done, you are approaching the end of your time" or "You are bringing your existence to an end" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]] )

|

# I will make you a reproach to the nations and a laughingstock to all the lands
|
|
|
|
This can be reworded so that the nouns "reproach" and "laughingstock" are expressed as verbs. AT: "I will make the nations reproach you and all the lands ridicule you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns]])
|
|
|
|
# a reproach

someone whom people disapprove of or rebuke
|
|
|
|
# a laughingstock
|
|
|
|
a person whom people ridicule or mock
|
|
|
|
# to all the lands
|
|
|
|
This generalization refers to the places who are familiar with Jerusalem and represents the people who live in these places. AT: "of the people of every nearby land" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]])
