33
"Thus says the Lord Almighty: Your house is desolate; I will drive you out as the wind drives straw;
34
and your sons will have no children, because with you they have neglected my commandment and have done what is evil in my sight.
35
I will give your houses to a people that will come, who without having heard me will believe. Those to whom I have shown no signs will do what I have commanded.
36
They have seen no prophets, yet will recall their former state.
