^15 (A)Were they ashamed when they committed abomination?
    No, they were not at all ashamed;
    they did not know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
    ^(B)at the time that I punish them, they shall be overthrown,”
says the Lord.

¹² Were they ashamed when they committed abomination?
    No, ^(A)they were not at all ashamed;
    they did not know how to blush.
^(B)Therefore they shall fall among the fallen;
    when I punish them, they shall be overthrown,
says the Lord.

^3 (A)Therefore the showers have been withheld,
    and the spring rain has not come;
yet you have ^(B)the forehead of a whore;
    you refuse to be ashamed.

⁵ The Lord within her ^(A)is righteous;
    he does no injustice;
every morning he shows forth his justice;
    each dawn he does not fail;
    but ^(B)the unjust knows no shame.

⁴ The best of them is ^(A)like a brier,
    the most upright of them a thorn hedge.
The day of ^(B)your watchmen, of your punishment, has come;
    ^(C)now their confusion is at hand.

⁶ Therefore ^(A)it shall be night to you, without vision,
    and darkness to you, without divination.
^(B)The sun shall go down on the prophets,
    and the day shall be black over them;
