They Don't Believe, But they will, Finally See whom The LORD really is, and They will Hate Him to the Core.
Isaiah 9:19-21
Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother…
Holman Christian Standard Bible
The people will oppress one another, man against man, neighbor against neighbor; the youth will act arrogantly toward the elder, and the worthless toward the honorable.
American Standard Version
And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the old man, and the base against the honorable.
12“Therefore you are to speak this word to them. ‘This is what the LORD, the God of Israel says: “Every jug is to be filled with wine.”’ And when they say to you, ‘Do we not very well know that every jugis to be filled with wine?’ 13then say to them, ‘This is what the LORD says: “Behold, I am going to fill allthe inhabitants of this land—the kings who sit for David on his throne, the priests, the prophets, and allthe inhabitants of Jerusalem—with drunkenness! 14Then I will smash them against each other, both the fathers and the sons together,” declares the LORD. “I will not have compassion nor be troubled nortake pity so as to keep from destroying them.”’”
15Listen and pay attention, do not be haughty;
For the LORD has spoken.
16Give glory to the LORD your God
Before He brings darkness
And before your feet stumble
On the mountains in the dark,
And while you are hoping for light
He makes it into gloom,
And turns it into thick darkness.
17But if you do not listen to it,
My soul will weep in secret for such pride;
And my eyes will shed
And stream down tears,
Because the flock of the LORD has been taken captive.
18Say to the king and the queen mother,
“Take a lowly seat,
For your beautiful crown
Has come down from your head.”
19The cities of the Negev have been locked up,
And there is no one to open them;
All Judah has been taken into exile,
Wholly taken into exile.
20“Raise your eyes and see
Those coming from the north.
Where is the flock that was given you,
Your beautiful sheep?
21“What will you say when He appoints over you—
And you yourself had taught them—
Former companions to be head over you?
Will sharp pains not take hold of you
Like a woman in childbirth?
22“If you say in your heart,
‘Why have these things happened to me?’
Because of the magnitude of your wrongdoing
Your skirts have been removed
And your https://biblehub.com/nasb_/jeremiah/13.htm#fnheels have suffered violence.
23“Can the Ethiopian change his skin,
Or the leopard his spots?
Then you as well can do good
Who are accustomed to doing evil.
24“Therefore I will scatter them like drifting straw
To the desert wind.
25“This is your lot, the portion measured to you
From Me,” declares the LORD,
“Because you have forgotten Me
And trusted in falsehood.
26“So I Myself have stripped your skirts off over your face,
So that your shame will be seen.
27“As for your adulteries and your lustful neighings,
The outrageous sin of your prostitution
On the hills in the field,
I have seen your abominations.
Woe to you, Jerusalem!
How long will you remain unclean?”
