[a]It is to your own destruction, Israel,
That you are (A)against Me, against your (B)help.
10 Where then is your (C)king,
That he might save you in all your cities;
And your (D)judges, to whom you said,
“Give me a king and princes”?
11 I (E)gave you a king in My anger,
And (F)took him away in My wrath.
