⁹ Therefore once more I accuse you,

says the Lord,
   and I accuse your children’s children.
¹⁰ Cross to the coasts of Cyprus and look,
   send to Kedar and examine with care;
   see if there has ever been such a thing.
¹¹ Has a nation changed its gods,
   even though they are no gods?
But my people have changed their glory
   for something that does not profit.
¹² Be appalled, O heavens, at this,
   be shocked, be utterly desolate,

says the Lord,
¹³ for my people have committed two evils:
   they have forsaken me,
the fountain of living water,
   and dug out cisterns for themselves,
cracked cisterns
   that can hold no water.
