¹⁴ Your prophets saw visions,
    but they were false and worth nothing.
They did not point out your sins
    to keep you from being captured.
They preached what was false
    and led you wrongly.

¹⁵ All who pass by on the road
    clap their hands at you;
they make fun of Jerusalem
    and shake their heads.
They ask, “Is this the city that people called
    the most beautiful city,
    the happiest place on earth?”

¹⁶ All your enemies open their mouths
    to speak against you.
They make fun and grind their teeth in anger.
    They say, “We have swallowed you up.
This is the day we were waiting for!
    We have finally seen it happen.”
