16 This is what the Lord says:

“Stand where the roads cross and look.
    Ask where the old way is.
Ask where the good way is, and walk on it.
    If you do, you will find rest for yourselves.
    But you have said, ‘We will not walk on the good way!’
17 I chose watchmen to watch over you.
    I told you, ‘Listen for the sound of the war trumpet!’
    But you said, ‘We will not listen.’
18 So listen, all you nations.
    Pay attention, you witnesses.
    Watch what I will do to the people of Judah.

16 This is what the Lord says:

“Stand at the crossroads and look;
    ask for the ancient paths,(A)
ask where the good way(B) is, and walk in it,
    and you will find rest(C) for your souls.
    But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
17 I appointed watchmen(D) over you and said,
    ‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’(E)
    But you said, ‘We will not listen.’(F)
18 Therefore hear, you nations;
    you who are witnesses,
    observe what will happen to them.
