Thus says the Lord of hosts:
Glean[a] thoroughly as a vine
    the remnant of Israel;
like a grape gatherer, pass your hand again
    over its branches.(A)

10 To whom shall I speak and give warning,
    that they may hear?
See, their ears are closed;[b]
    they cannot listen.
The word of the Lord is to them an object of scorn;
    they take no pleasure in it.(B)
11 But I am full of the wrath of the Lord;
    I am weary of holding it in.

Pour it out on the children in the street
    and on the gatherings of young men as well;
both husband and wife shall be taken,
    the elderly and those full of days.(C)
