Be warned, Jerusalem,
or I will turn away from you.
I will make your land desolate,
so that no one can live there.

They will glean what remains of Israel
    as thoroughly as a vine.
Like someone gathering grapes,
pass your hand over the branches again.

They will not be able to hear.
Indeed, to them the word of the Lord is an embarrassment.
They take no pleasure in it.
