17 And he shall say, I will wait for God, that hath turned his face from the house of Jacob, and will have my trust in him.
18 Behold me, and the children which God hath given me. And they shall be for signs and wonders in Israel from the Lord of Hosts, who dwelleth in the mount Zion.
19 And if they say unto you, Seek ye them that speak from the earth, and the ventriloquists, the babblers that talk from the belly: is it not a nation with its God? Why are they to seek out the dead concerning the living?
20 For he hath given them a law for their help: that they may speak not as this word, concerning which there is no giving of gifts.
21 And there shall come upon you cruel famine; and it shall be, when ye hunger, ye shall be grieved, and shall revile your ruler, and your country's (laws); and they shall look up to the heaven above,
22 And shall look unto the earth beneath; and behold, affiction and straitening and darkness, strait dismay and darkness that they see not.

8 The Lord sent death upon Jacob, and it came upon Israel.
9 And they shall learn, all the people of Ephraim and they that sit in Samaria, saying, in pride and uplifted heart,
10 The bricks are fallen, but come, let us hew stones; and let us cut down sycamines and cedars, and build ourselves a tower.
