⁶ I was angry with My people,
I profaned My heritage
And handed them over to you.
You did not show mercy to them,
On the ^(A)aged you made your yoke very heavy.

¹⁶ The presence of the Lord has scattered them,
He will not continue to look at them;
They did not ^[a](A)honor the priests,
They did not favor the elders.
