20Declare ye this in the house of Jacob, And sound ye it in Judah, saying,
21Hear ye, I pray you, this, O people, foolish and without heart, Eyes they have, and they see not, Ears they have, and they hear not.
22Me do ye not fear, an affirmation of Jehovah? From My presence are ye not pained? Who hath made sand the border of the sea, A limit age-during, and it passeth not over it, They shake themselves, and they are not able, Yea, sounded have its billows, and they pass not over.
23And this people hath an apostate and rebellious heart, They have turned aside, and they go on.
24And they have not said in their heart, `Let us fear, we pray you, Jehovah our God, who is giving rain, The sprinkling and the gathered, in its season, The appointed weeks of harvest He keepeth for us.`
25Your iniquities have turned these away, And your sins have kept the good from you.
26For the wicked have been found among My people. It looketh about the covering of snares, They have set up a trap -- men they capture.
