This is what the Lord All-Powerful says:

“Gather the few people of Israel who are left alive,
    as you would gather the last grapes on a grapevine.
Check each vine again,
    like someone who gathers grapes.”

10 To whom can I speak? Whom can I warn?
    Who will listen to me?
The people of Israel have closed ears,
    so they cannot hear my warnings.
They don’t like the word of the Lord;
    they don’t want to listen to it!
11 But I am full of the anger of the Lord,
    and I am tired of holding it in.

“Pour out my anger on the children who play in the street
    and on the young men gathered together.
A husband and his wife will both be caught in his anger,
    as will the very old.
12 Their houses will be turned over to others,
    along with their fields and wives,
because I will raise my hand
    and punish the people of Judah,” says the Lord.
