²⁴ But since you refuse^(A) to listen when I call^(B)
    and no one pays attention^(C) when I stretch out my hand,

¹² I will destine you for the sword,^(A)
    and all of you will fall in the slaughter;^(B)
for I called but you did not answer,^(C)
    I spoke but you did not listen.^(D)
You did evil in my sight
    and chose what displeases me.”^(E)

⁴ so I also will choose harsh treatment for them
    and will bring on them what they dread.^(A)
For when I called, no one answered,^(B)
    when I spoke, no one listened.
They did evil^(C) in my sight
    and chose what displeases me.”^(D)

¹² Therefore because of you,
    Zion will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble,^(A)
    the temple^(B) hill a mound overgrown with thickets.^(C)
