15. Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?No! They were not at all ashamed;Nor did they know how to blush.Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;At the time I punish them,They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.
16. Thus says the Lord:“Stand in the ways and see,And ask for the old paths, where the good way is,And walk in it;Then you will find rest for your souls.But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
17. Also, I set watchmen over you, saying,‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’But they said, ‘We will not listen.’
18. Therefore hear, you nations,And know, O congregation, what is among them.
19. Hear, O earth!Behold, I will certainly bring calamity on this people—The fruit of their thoughts,Because they have not heeded My wordsNor My law, but rejected it.
