18Your way and your doings have procured these things to you; this is your wickedness; for it is bitter, for it reaches to your heart.
19My anguish, my anguish! I am pained at my very heart; my heart is disquieted in me; I can`t hold my peace; because you have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war.
20Destruction on destruction is cried; for the whole land is laid waste: suddenly are my tents destroyed, [and] my curtains in a moment.
21How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet?
22For my people are foolish, they know don`t me; they are foolish children, and they have no understanding; they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
23I saw the earth, and, behold, it was waste and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24I saw the mountains, and, behold, they trembled, and all the hills moved back and forth.
