11 Hath a nation, changed gods, although they were No-gods? Yet my people have changed my glory for that which could not profit! 12 Be amazed, O ye heavens, at this, - And shudder, be dried up utterly, Urgeth Yahweh. 13 For two wicked things, have my people committed, - Me, have they forsaken a fountain of living water, To hew out for themselves cisterns broken cisterns, that cannot hold water.
