16 For those who lead this people lead them astray;and those who are led by them are destroyed.
17 Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men,neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows;for everyone is profane and an evildoer,and every mouth speaks folly.For all this his anger is not turned away,but his hand is stretched out still.
18 For wickedness burns like a fire.It devours the briers and thorns;yes, it kindles in the thickets of the forest,and they roll upward in a column of smoke.
19 Through the Lord of Hosts’ wrath, the land is burned up;and the people are the fuel for the fire.No one spares his brother.
20 One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry;and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied.Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:
21 Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah.For all this his anger is not turned away,but his hand is stretched out still.
