καὶ πορεύσονται πόλεις Ἰούδα καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ κεκράξονται πρὸς τοὺς θεοὺς οἷς αὐτοὶ θυμιῶσιν αὐτοῖς, μὴ σώσουσιν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τῶν κακῶν αὐτῶν.

LXX

Then shall the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem go and cry unto the gods unto which they offer incense: but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
