And the shepherds transgressed against Me, And the prophets have prophesied by Baal, And after those who profit not have gone. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> Therefore, yet I plead with you, An affirmation of Jehovah, And with your sons&#8217; sons I plead. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> For, pass to the isles of Chittim, and see, And to Kedar send, and consider well, And see if there hath been like this: <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> Hath a nation changed gods? (And they `are&#8217; no gods!) And My people hath changed its honour For that which doth not profit. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> Be astonished, ye heavens, at this, Yea, be frightened, be greatly wasted, An affirmation of Jehovah. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> For two evils hath My people done, Me they have forsaken, a fountain of living waters, To hew out for themselves wells &#8212; broken wells, That contain not the waters. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> A servant `is&#8217; Israel? Is he a child of the house? Wherefore hath he been for a prey? <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> Against him roar do young lions, They have given forth their voice, And make his land become a desolation, His cities have been burnt without inhabitant. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> Also sons of Noph and Tahapanes Consume thee &#8212; the crown of the head! <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> Dost thou not do this to thyself? `By&#8217; thy forsaking Jehovah thy God, At the time He is leading thee in the way? <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> And now, what &#8212; to thee in the way of Egypt, To drink the waters of Sihor? And what &#8212; to thee in the way of Asshur, To drink the waters of the River? <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> Instruct thee doth thy wickedness, And thy backslidings reprove thee, Know and see that an evil and a bitter thing `Is&#8217; thy forsaking Jehovah thy God, And My fear not being on thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah of Hosts. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> For from of old thou hast broken thy yoke, Drawn away thy bands, and sayest, `I do not serve,&#8217; For, on every high height, and under every green tree, Thou art wandering &#8212; a harlot. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> And I planted thee a choice vine, wholly a true seed, And how hast thou been turned to Me, To the degenerate shoots of a strange vine? <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> But though thou dost wash with nitre, And dost multiply to thyself soap, Marked is thine iniquity before Me, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> How sayest thou, `I have not been defiled, After the Baalim I have not gone?&#8217; See thy way in a valley, know what thou hast done, A swift dromedary winding her ways, <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> A wild ass accustomed to a wilderness, In the desire of her soul she hath swallowed up wind, Her meeting &#8212; who doth turn her back? None seeking her do weary themselves, In her month they find her. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> Withhold thy foot from being unshod, And thy throat from thirst, And thou sayest, `It is incurable, No, for I have loved strangers, and after them I go.&#8217; <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> As the shame of a thief when he is found, So put to shame have been the house of Israel, They, their kings, their heads, And their priests, and their prophets, <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> Saying to wood, `My father `art&#8217; thou!&#8217; And to a stone, `Thou hast brought me forth,&#8217; For they turned unto me the back and not the face, And in the time of their vexation, They say, `Arise Thou, and save us.&#8217; <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> And where `are&#8217; thy gods, that thou hast made to thyself? Let them arise, if they may save thee, In the time of thy vexation, For &#8212; the number of thy cities have been thy gods, O Judah, <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> Why do ye strive with Me? All of you have transgressed against Me, An affirmation of Jehovah. <\/br><strong>30<\/strong> In vain I have smitten your sons, Instruction they have not accepted, Devoured hath your sword your prophets, As a destroying lion. <\/br><strong>31<\/strong> O generation, see ye the word of Jehovah: A wilderness have I been to Israel? A land of thick darkness? Wherefore have My people said, `We mourned, We come not in again unto Thee.&#8217; <\/br><strong>32<\/strong> Doth a virgin forget her ornaments? A bride her bands? And My people have forgotten Me days without number. <\/br><strong>33<\/strong> What &#8212; dost thou make pleasing thy ways to seek love? Therefore even the wicked thou hast taught thy ways. <\/br><strong>34<\/strong> Also in thy skirts hath been found the blood of innocent needy souls, Not by digging have I found them, but upon all these. <\/br><strong>35<\/strong> And thou sayest, `Because I have been innocent, Surely turned back hath His anger from me?&#8217; Lo, I have been judged with thee, Because of thy saying, `I have not sinned.&#8217; <\/br><strong>36<\/strong> What? thou art very vile to repeat thy way, Even of Egypt thou art ashamed, As thou hast been ashamed of Asshur, <\/br><strong>37<\/strong> Also from this thou goest out, And thy hands on thy head, For Jehovah hath kicked at thy confidences, And thou dost not give prosperity to them! <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client =
