9 “Therefore I will yet acontend with you,” declares Yahweh,
“And with your sons’ sons I will contend.
10 For across to the coastlands of Kittim and see,
And send to bKedar and perceive closely
And see if there has been such a thing as this!
11 Has a nation changed gods
Though athey were not gods?
But My people have bchanged their glory
For that which does not profit.
12 Be appalled, aO heavens, at this,
And be horribly afraid, be very devastated,” declares Yahweh.
13 “For My people have done two evils:
They have forsaken Me,
The afountain of living waters,
To hew for themselves bcisterns,
Broken cisterns
That can hold no water.
