Heed my warning, O Jerusalem,
    or I will turn away from you in revulsion
and reduce you to a desert,
    a desolate land where no man dwells.
These are the words of the Lord of hosts:
    Glean thoroughly like a vine
    the remnant of Israel.
Like one who picks the grapes,
    pass your hand once again over its branches.
10 To whom should I speak and issue warning
    so that they may hear?
See, their ears are closed,
    and so they cannot pay heed
They regard the word of the Lord as offensive
    and they take no pleasure in it.

Take warning, Jerusalem,
    or I will turn away(A) from you
and make your land desolate
    so no one can live in it.”

This is what the Lord Almighty says:

“Let them glean the remnant(B) of Israel
    as thoroughly as a vine;
pass your hand over the branches again,
    like one gathering grapes.”

10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
    Who will listen(C) to me?
Their ears are closed[a](D)
    so they cannot hear.(E)
The word(F) of the Lord is offensive to them;
    they find no pleasure in it.
