13 For from the least to the greatest of them, everyone is making profit dishonestly. From prophet to priest,everyone deals falsely.
14 They have treated My people’s brokenness superficially,claiming, “Peace, peace,” when there is no peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they acted so abhorrently?They weren’t at all ashamed.They can no longer feel humiliation. Therefore, they will fall among the fallen.When I punish them, they will collapse, says the Lord.
16 This is what the Lord says:Stand by the roadways and look.Ask about the ancient paths: Which is the way to what is good?Then take itand find rest for yourselves. But they protested, “We won’t!”
17 I appointed watchmen over you and said: Listen for the sound of the ram’s horn.But they protested, “We won’t listen!”
18 Therefore listen, you nationsand you witnesses,learn what the charge is against them.
19 Listen, earth!I am about to bring disaster on these people,the fruit of their own plotting, for they have paid no attention to My word.They have rejected My instruction.
