16. This is what the Lord says:‘Stand at the crossroads and look;ask for the ancient paths,ask where the good way is, and walk in it,and you will find rest for your souls.But you said, “We will not walk in it.”
17. I appointed watchmen over you and said,“Listen to the sound of the trumpet!”But you said, “We will not listen.”
18. Therefore hear, you nations;you who are witnesses,observe what will happen to them.
19. Hear, you earth:I am bringing disaster on this people,the fruit of their schemes,because they have not listened to my wordsand have rejected my law.
