²³ 
Who among you will listen to this?
Who will listen and pay attention in the time to come?

² 
Hear, O heavens, and listen, O earth;
For the Lord has spoken:
“I have reared and brought up sons,
But they have rebelled against Me and have broken away.

¹⁵ 
Listen and pay close attention, do not be haughty and overconfident,
For the Lord has spoken [says Jeremiah].
¹⁶ 
Give glory to the Lord your God,
Before He brings darkness
And before your feet stumble
On the dark and shadowy mountains,
And while you are longing for light
He turns it into the shadow of death,
And makes it into thick darkness.
