they are not his children; this is their flaw,

a generation crooked and perverse.

foolish and unwise people?

Has he not, your father, created you?

He made you, and he established you.

O foolish people and unwise?

Is not he thy father that hath bought thee?

Hath he not made thee, and established thee?
