'Like watchmen of a field they are against her round about, Because she has rebelled against Me,' declares the LORD.
"Your ways and your deeds Have brought these things to you. This is your evil. How bitter! How it has touched your heart!"
My soul, my soul! I am in anguish! Oh, my heart! My heart is pounding in me; I cannot be silent, Because you have heard, O my soul, The sound of the trumpet, The alarm of war.
Disaster on disaster is proclaimed, For the whole land is devastated; Suddenly my tents are devastated, My curtains in an instant.
How long must I see the standard And hear the sound of the trumpet?
"For My people are foolish, They know Me not; They are stupid children And have no understanding. They are shrewd to do evil, But to do good they do not know."
I looked on the earth, and behold, it was formless and void; And to the heavens, and they had no light.
