⁶ Though I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities
    and lack of food in all your places,
    yet you did not return to Me,
    says the Lord.

⁷ I also withheld the rain from you,
    when there were still three months to the harvest.
I would send rain on one town,
    and send no rain on another town.
One field would receive rain,
    but another field without rain would wither.
⁸ So two or three towns wandered to one town to drink water,
    but they were not satisfied;
    yet you did not return to Me,
    says the Lord.
