And a donkey its master’s manger,
But Israel ^(A)does not know,
My people ^(B)do not understand.”

Alas, sinful nation,
People weighed down with iniquity,
^(a)^(C)Offspring of evildoers,
Sons who ^(D)act corruptly!
They have ^(E)abandoned the Lord,
They have ^(F)despised the Holy One of Israel,
They have turned away ^(b)from Him.
