7 They are all hot, like an oven,
And have devoured their judges;
All their kings have fallen.
aNone among them calls upon Me.
And have devoured their judges;
All their kings have fallen.
aNone among them calls upon Me.
9 aAliens have devoured his strength,
But he does not know it;
Yes, gray hairs are here and there on him,
Yet he does not know it.
But he does not know it;
Yes, gray hairs are here and there on him,
Yet he does not know it.
10 And the apride of Israel testifies to his face,
But bthey do not return to the Lord their God,
Nor seek Him for all this.
But bthey do not return to the Lord their God,
Nor seek Him for all this.
Futile Reliance on the Nations
12 Wherever they go, I will aspread My net on them;
I will bring them down like birds of the air;
I will chastise them
bAccording to what their congregation has heard.
I will bring them down like birds of the air;
I will chastise them
bAccording to what their congregation has heard.
