Then I will not harm you.’“ But you would not listen to me,” says the Lord.“ You made me furious by worshiping idols you made with your own hands, bringing on yourselves all the disasters you now suffer.

They have been stubborn and sinful— even worse than their ancestors.“ Tell them all this, but do not expect them to listen. Shout out your warnings, but do not expect them to respond.Say to them,‘ This is the nation whose people will not obey the Lord their God and who refuse to be taught. Truth has vanished from among them; it is no longer heard on their lips.
