²⁰ Follow what the Lord taught you and said to you through me. People who don’t speak in keeping with these words will have no hope in the morning. ²¹ They will suffer and be hungry. They’ll wander through the land. When they are very hungry, they will become angry. They’ll look up toward heaven. They’ll ask for bad things to happen to their king and their God. ²² Then they will look at the earth. They’ll see nothing but suffering and darkness. They’ll see terrible sadness. They’ll be driven into total darkness.
