6And have not said, Where [is] Jehovah, Who bringeth us up out of the land of Egypt, Who leadeth us in a wilderness, In a land of deserts and pits, In a dry land, and of death-shade, In a land -- none hath passed through it, Nor dwelt hath man there?`
7Yea, I bring you in to a land of fruitful fields, To eat its fruit and its goodness, And ye come in and defile My land, And Mine inheritance have made an abomination.
8The priests have not said, `Where [is] Jehovah?` And those handling the law have not known Me. And the shepherds transgressed against Me, And the prophets have prophesied by Baal, And after those who profit not have gone.
9Therefore, yet I plead with you, An affirmation of Jehovah, And with your sons` sons I plead.
10For, pass to the isles of Chittim, and see, And to Kedar send, and consider well, And see if there hath been like this:
11Hath a nation changed gods? (And they [are] no gods!) And My people hath changed its honour For that which doth not profit.
12Be astonished, ye heavens, at this, Yea, be frightened, be greatly wasted, An affirmation of Jehovah.
