The priests did not ask,
    “Where is the Lord?”
Those who dealt with the law did not know me,
    and even the shepherds rebelled against me.

    I will once again accuse you,
and I will further accuse

    send to Kedar and observe carefully.
See if anything similar to this
    has ever previously occurred.
