New International Version (NIV)

14Now they grope through the streets

as if they were blind.

They are so defiled with blood

that no one dares to touch their garments.

14They wandered, blind, in the streets;

They were defiled with blood,

Such that no one could touch their garments.

14They wandered, blind, in the streets;

They were defiled with blood

So that no one could touch their garments.

14They wandered, blind, in the streets;

They were defiled with blood

So that no one could touch their garments.

14They wandered blind in the streets,

defiled by this blood,

so that no one dared

to touch their garments.

14Now those prophets and priests

have to feel their way along the streets

as if they were blind.

The blood of those they killed has made them “unclean.”

So no one dares to touch their clothes.
