[It is] because of the sins of her prophets, [and] the iniquities of her priests, That have shed the blood of the just in the midst of her.
Lamentations 4:13

Food and raiment signify all the internal which nourishes the soul, and raiment, all the external that clothes the body. All the internal refers to love and wisdom, and all the external to opulence and eminence.
