¹⁰ Israel’s pride testifies against^[a] him;
    yet they do not return to the Lord their God
    or seek him, for all this.^(A)

³ O Lord, do your eyes not look for truth?
You have struck them,
    but they felt no anguish;
you have consumed them,
    but they refused to take correction.
They have made their faces harder than rock;
    they have refused to turn back.^(A)

31 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help
    and who rely on horses,
who trust in chariots because they are many
    and in horsemen because they are very strong,
but do not look to the Holy One of Israel
    or consult the Lord!^(A)

¹⁶ They turn to that which does not profit;^[a]
    they have become like a defective bow;
their officials shall fall by the sword
    because of the rage of their tongue.
So much for their babbling in the land of Egypt.^(A)

¹⁵ I will return again to my place
    until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face.
    In their distress they will beg my favor:^(A)

¹³ Yet when I cleansed you in your filthy lewdness,
    you did not become clean from your filth;
you shall not again be cleansed
    until I have satisfied my fury upon you.^(A)
