⁸ They will not gaze upon the altars, their handiwork,
    nor shall they regard what their fingers have made
    the sacred poles and the altars of incense.
⁹ On that day their strong cities will be
    like those abandoned by the Hivites and the Amorites
which they deserted because of the Israelites’ advance;
    their cities will be left desolate.
¹⁰ You have forgotten the God of your salvation
    and have not kept in mind the Rock, your refuge.
Therefore, you plant your pagan gardens
    and sow exotic seeds for a foreign god.
