你为何像受惊的人，像不能救人的勇士呢。耶和华阿，你仍在我们中间。我们也称为你名下的人，求你不要离开我们。
Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet thou, O LORD, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.
他们禁食的时候，我不听他们的呼求。他们献燔祭和素祭，我也不悦纳。我却要用刀剑，饥荒，瘟疫灭绝他们。
When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.

先知若被迷惑说一句预言，是我耶和华任那先知受迷惑，我也必向他伸手，将他从我民以色列中除灭。
And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
