15 Yet My people have forgotten Me.(A)
They burn incense to false idols
that make them stumble in their ways
on the ancient roads(B)
and walk on new paths, not the highway.
16 They have made their land a horror,(C)
a perpetual object of scorn;[a](D)
everyone who passes by it will be horrified(E)
and shake his head.(F)
17 I will scatter them before the enemy like the east wind.(G)
I will show them[b] My back and not My face
on the day of their calamity.
