“Bloated by arrogance, big as a house,they’re a public disgrace,The lot of them—Israel, Ephraim, Judah—lurching and weaving down their guilty streets.When they decide to get their lives togetherand go off looking for God once again,They’ll find it’s too late.I, God, will be long gone.They’ve played fast and loose with me for too long,filling the country with their bastard offspring.A plague of locusts willdevastate their violated land.
