²³ But this people has a rebellious and stubborn heart;
    they have risen up in defiance and gone away.
²⁴ Nor do they say to themselves,
    “Let us fear the Lord, our God,
who gives us in their proper season
    the autumn and spring rains
and unfailingly provides for us
    the weeks designated for the harvest.”
²⁵ Your iniquities have upset the order of nature,
    and your sins have deprived you of its bounty.
