Don’t be like your ancestors to whom the former prophets preached:
    The Lord of heavenly forces proclaims: Turn from your evil ways and your evil deeds.
        But they didn’t listen;
            they didn’t draw near to me.
So where are your ancestors?
        Do the prophets live forever?
In fact, didn’t my words and laws,
        which I gave to my servants, the prophets,
            pursue your ancestors?
And then the people changed their hearts, and they said,
    The Lord of heavenly forces has treated us according to
    what we have done,[a]
    exactly as he planned.
