"Listen to me, you hard-hearted, you who are far removed from righteousness:

"Why will you still be struck down? Why will you continue to rebel? Your whole head is sick, and your whole heart is faint.

as when a hungry man dreams he eats, but wakes up still hungry; or when a thirsty man dreams he drinks, but wakes up faint, with his thirst unquenched. So will it be with the hordes of all the nations that fight against Mount Zion.

He's the one who gives might to the faint, renewing strength for the powerless.

And he won't grow faint or be crushed until he establishes justice on the mainland, and the coastlands take ownership of his Law."

The blacksmith prepares a tool and works in the coals, then fashions an idol with hammers, working by the strength of his arm. He even becomes hungry and loses his strength; he drinks no water and grows faint.

For I won't accuse forever, nor will I always be angry; for then the human spirit would grow faint before me even the souls that I have created.

Your children have fainted. They lie at the head of every street, like antelope caught in a trap, filled with the anger of the LORD and the rebuke of your God.
