3The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel does not know me, and the people has not regarded me.
4Ah sinful nation, a people full of sins, an evil seed, lawless children: you° have forsaken the Lord, and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
5Why should you° be struck any more, transgressing more and more? the whole head is pained, and the whole heart sad.
