14 Does the snow of Lebanon leave
    the crags of Sir′ion?[a]
Do the mountain[b] waters run dry,[c]
    the cold flowing streams?
15 But my people have forgotten me,
    they burn incense to false gods;
they have stumbled[d] in their ways,
    in the ancient roads,
and have gone into bypaths,
    not the highway,
16 making their land a horror,
    a thing to be hissed at for ever.
Every one who passes by it is horrified
    and shakes his head.
