3 O Lord, do not your eyes look for truth?
You have gstruck them down,
but they felt no anguish;
you have consumed them,
but they refused to htake correction.
They have made their faces harder than rock;
they have refused to repent.
13 The people did not turn to him who struck them,
nor inquire of the Lord of hosts.
Israel Has Not Returned to the Lord
6 “I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities,
and lack of bread in all your places,
yet you did not areturn to me,”
declares the Lord.
8 so two or three cities would wander to another city
to drink water, cand would not be satisfied;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
9 “I struck you with dblight and mildew;
your many gardens and your vineyards,
your fig trees and your olive trees the elocust devoured;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
10 “I sent among you a pestilence fafter the manner of Egypt;
gI killed your young men with the sword,
and carried away your horses,1
and I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
11 “I overthrew some of you,
has when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
and you were as a brand2 plucked out of the burning;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
