Be warned, O Jerusalem,
    lest I turn away from you in disgust,
lest I make you a desolation,
    a land that is not inhabited.”
Thus says Yahweh of hosts:
    “They will thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel as a vine,
    turn back your hand over the branches like a grape-gatherer.
10 To whom shall I speak and admonish,
    that they may hear?
Look, their ears are closed,[a]
    and they are not able to listen attentively.
Look, the word of Yahweh is to them an object of scorn,
    they do not delight in it.
