31 Evil generation,
pay attention to the word of the Lord!
Have I been a wilderness to Israel
or a land of dense darkness?(A)

“We will go where we want;[a]
we will no longer come to You”?
32 Can a young woman forget her jewelry(B)
or a bride her wedding sash?
Yet My people have forgotten Me(C)
for countless days.
33 How skillfully you pursue love;
you also teach evil women your ways.
