If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, that will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and, though they chasten him, will not hearken unto them;
The eye that mocketh at his father,\par\tab And despiseth to obey his mother,\par\tab The ravens of the valley shall pick it out,\par\tab And the young eagles shall eat it.\par
In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have cleansed thee and thou wast not cleansed, thou shalt not be cleansed from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my wrath toward thee to rest.

I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself {\i thus}, Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a calf unaccustomed {\i to the yoke}: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art Jehovah my God.
O Jehovah, do not thine eyes look upon truth? thou hast stricken them, but they were not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.\par
I will be his father, and he shall be my son: if he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men;
For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever, for the iniquity which he knew, because his sons did bring a curse upon themselves, and he restrained them not.
