²³ Who among you will give ear to this?
    Who will listen and hear for the time to come?
²⁴ Who gave up Jacob as spoil,
    and Israel to the robbers?
Did not the Lord,
    against whom we have sinned?
For they would not walk in His ways,
    nor were they obedient to His law.
²⁵ Therefore, He has poured on him the fury of His anger
    and the strength of battle;
and it has set him on fire all around, yet he did not recognize it;
    and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
