13
Yet the people have not turned to him who struck them, neither have they sought Yahweh of Hosts.
14
Therefore Yahweh will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm-branch and rush, in one day.
15
The elder and the honorable man, he is the head; and the prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.
16
For those who lead this people cause them to err; and those who are led of 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 evil-doer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
