14 They have healed also the hurt of my people superficially,
    saying, ‘Peace, peace!’ when there is no peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?
    No, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush.
Therefore they will fall among those who fall.
    When I visit them, they will be cast down,” says Yahweh.

    But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
