13. Therefore, this is what the Lord says:Ask among the nations,Who has heard things like these?Virgin Israel has done a most terrible thing.
14. Does the snow of Lebanon ever leave the highland crags?Or does cold water flowing from a distance ever fail?
15. Yet My people have forgotten Me. They burn incense to false idolsthat make them stumble in their ways on the ancient roads and walk on new paths, not the highway.
16. They have made their land a horror, a perpetual object of scorn; everyone who passes by it will be horrified and shake his head.
