“My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.”
The final verse promises that the God of Israel will reject them because they have not obeyed him and they shall be wanderers among the nations indicates exile as the consequence of covenant disobedience. The wandering suggests that Israel will lose their land and become displaced people subject to foreign rule. This verse concludes the chapter with the promise of exile, the ultimate consequence of covenant violation and the prophetic warnings that Israel has rejected.
