² I have stretched out my hands all day
    to a rebellious people,
Who walk in a way that is not good,
    following their own designs;^(A)

¹² You I will destine for the sword;
    you shall all bow down for slaughter;
Because I called and you did not answer,
    I spoke and you did not listen,
But did what is evil in my sight
    and things I do not delight in, you chose,^(A)

⁴ I in turn will choose affliction for them
    and bring upon them what they fear.
Because when I called, no one answered,
    when I spoke, no one listened.
Because they did what was evil in my sight,
    and things I do not delight in they chose,^(A)
