24     I will stir up the very worst of the nations
        to take possession of their houses.
    I will put an end to the strong ones’ pride,
        and their most sacred sites will be desecrated.
25     When the horror of My wrath comes, they will look for a calm place,
        but there will be nothing but torrential terror.
26     One disaster after another will hit them;
        one bad report after another will come to them.
    Then they will seek a vision from any prophet,
        but no instruction in the law from the priest
        and no wise counsel from the elders will be found.

    they will seek peace in vain.(C)

    and rumor upon rumor.
They will go searching for a vision from the prophet,(E)
    priestly instruction in the law will cease,
    the counsel of the elders will come to an end.(F)
