18. Nevertheless in those days,
19. And it shall come to pass, when you shall say, Why does the LORD our God all these things unto us? then shall you answer them, Like you have forsaken me, and served foreign gods in your land, so shall you serve strangers in a land that is not yours.
20. Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,
21. Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; who have eyes, and see not; who have ears, and hear not:
22. Fear you not me?
23. But this people has a revolting and a rebellious heart; they have revolted and gone away.
24. Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season: he reserves unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest.
25. Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withheld good things from you.
