Isaiah 26:11
11O Lord, byour hand is lifted up,but cthey do not see it.
Let them see your zeal for your people, and be ashamed.
Let dthe fire for your adversaries consume them.
Jeremiah 5:3
3O Lord, do not your eyes look for truth?eYou have struck them down,
but they felt no anguish;
you have consumed them,
but they refused to take correction.
fThey have made their faces harder than rock;
they have refused to repent.
Jeremiah 8:5-7
5Why then has this people gturned awayin perpetual hbacksliding?
iThey hold fast to deceit;
they refuse to return.
6 jI have paid attention and listened,
but they have not spoken rightly;
no man relents of his evil,
saying, ‘What have I done?’
Everyone turns to his own course,
klike a horse plunging headlong into battle.

obut my people know not
the rules ▼

and rin their distress earnestly seek me.
