13 “If my people would only listen to me,(A)
    if Israel would only follow my ways,
14 how quickly I would subdue(B) their enemies
    and turn my hand against(C) their foes!
15 Those who hate the Lord would cringe(D) before him,
    and their punishment would last forever.

    with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”

16 He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
