Up ,  sanctify  the  people , and  say , Sanctify  yourselves  against  tomorrow :  for  thus  saith  the  Lord  God  of  Israel .   There   is   an accursed  thing  in the  midst  of thee, O  Israel : thou  canst  not  stand  before  thine  enemies ,  until  ye take  away  the accursed  thing  from  among  you.
