And I will disperse thee in the nations, and will scatter thee among the countries, and I will put an end to thy uncleanness in thee.

And I have scattered thee among nations, And have spread thee out among lands, And consumed thy uncleanness out of thee.

And I will send you in flight among the nations and wandering among the countries; and I will completely take away out of you everything which is unclean.

And I will disperse you among the nations, and I will scatter you among the lands, and I will cause your uncleanness to fade away from you.

And I will scatter thee among the nations, and disperse thee in the countries, and will consume thy (h) filthiness out of thee.

And I will scatter thee among the Heathen, and disperse thee in the countries,.... Not only cause them to be carried captive to some one place, as Babylon; but to be scattered and dispersed throughout the various provinces of it, and in other nations, as chaff is by the winds; signifying hereby the power by which it would be done; their weakness, who would not be able to hinder it; and the uncomfortable condition they would be in:
and will consume thy filthiness out of thee; by destroying some filthy persons, and reforming others; by bringing them by means of those afflictions to a sense of their sins, and to forsake them; and so would be refined as silver from its dross in a furnace: it may have a particular reference to their idolatry, that filthy sin, which they were cured of, and purged from, by their captivity, and to which they returned no more.

consume thy filthiness out of thee--the object of God in scattering the Jews.
