Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the LORD.
We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.
