Israel Deserves To Be Punished

31 If ye be the people of the LORD, then hearken unto his word: Am I then become a wilderness unto the people of Israel? Or a land that hath no light? Wherefore sayeth my people then, 'We are lords; and we will come no more unto thee'? 32 Doth a maiden forget her raiment, or a bride her stomacher? But as for my people, they have forgotten me for days innumerable. 33 Why boastest thou thy ways so highly, to obtain favour therethrough, when thou hast yet stained them with blasphemies?
