But the people paid no mind to him who hit them,didn’t seek God-of-the-Angel-Armies.So God hacked off Israel’s head and tail,palm branch and reed, both on the same day.The big-head elders were the head,the lying prophets were the tail.Those who were supposed to lead this peopleled them down blind alleys,And those who followed the leadersended up lost and confused.That’s why the Master lost interest in the young men,had no feeling for their orphans and widows.All of them were godless and evil,talking filth and folly.And even after that, he was still angry,his fist still raised, ready to hit them again.
