“But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the Lord their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.”
The summary of rejection: 'Therefore say to them, "This is the nation that has not obeyed the LORD its God or responded to correction. Truth has perished; it has vanished from their lips.' This verse characterizes the people: they are a 'nation that has not obeyed the LORD its God,' has 'not responded to correction,' has lost 'truth,' which 'has vanished from their lips.' The absence of truth indicates a fundamental spiritual corruption: the people can no longer speak or recognize truth. Theologically, this verse indicates that the people's condition is terminal: they have become incapable of repentance because truth itself has been lost.
