15. “The Israelites were very wicked in Gilgal,so I have hated them there.Because of the sinful things they have done,I will force them to leave my land.I will no longer love them;their leaders have turned against me.
16. Israel is beaten down;its root is dying, and it has no fruit.If they have more children,I will kill the children they love.”
17. God will reject them,because they have not obeyed him;they will wander among the nations.
