15 Were they aashamed when they had committed abomination?
No! They were not at all ashamed;
Nor did they know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
At the time I punish them,
They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.
No! They were not at all ashamed;
Nor did they know how to blush.

At the time I punish them,
They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.
16 Thus says the Lord:
“Stand in the ways and see,
And ask for the aold paths, where the good way is,
And walk in it;
Then you will find brest for your souls.
But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’

19 aHear, O earth!
Behold, I will certainly bring bcalamity on this people—
cThe fruit of their thoughts,
Because they have not heeded My words
Nor My law, but rejected it.
