10 (A)To whom shall I speak and give warning,
    that they may hear?
(B)Behold, their ears are uncircumcised,

behold, (D)the word of the Lord is to them an object of scorn;
    they take no pleasure in it.
11 Therefore I am full of the wrath of the Lord;
    (E)I am weary of holding it in.

    and upon the gatherings of young men, also;
(G)both husband and wife (H)shall be taken,
    the elderly and the very aged.

10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
    Who will listen(A) to me?

    and the old, those weighed down with years.(H)
