11 Has a nation switched gods,though they aren’t really gods at all?Yet my people have exchanged their gloryfor what has no value.
12 Be stunned at such a thing, you heavens;shudder and quake,declares the Lord.
13 My people have committed two crimes:They have forsaken me, the spring of living water.And they have dug wells, broken wells that can’t hold water.
14 Is Israel a slave,a servant by birth?If not, why then has he become prey?
15 Lions roar at him; they growl.They destroy his landand make his towns desolateuntil nothing is left.
16 As well, the people of Memphis and Tahpanheslay open your scalp.
17 Haven’t you brought this on yourselfby abandoning the Lord your God,who has directed your paths?
