10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
    Who will listen(A) to me?
Their ears are closed[a](B)
    so they cannot hear.(C)
The word(D) of the Lord is offensive to them;
    they find no pleasure in it.
11 But I am full of the wrath(E) of the Lord,
    and I cannot hold it in.(F)

“Pour it out on the children in the street
    and on the young men(G) gathered together;
both husband and wife will be caught in it,
    and the old, those weighed down with years.(H)
12 Their houses will be turned over to others,(I)
    together with their fields and their wives,(J)
when I stretch out my hand(K)
    against those who live in the land,”
declares the Lord.
13 “From the least to the greatest,
    all(L) are greedy for gain;(M)
prophets and priests alike,
    all practice deceit.(N)
