Then said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.

The verse 1 is found in chapter 15 of Jeremiah. God declares that neither Moses nor Samuel could intercede to completely avert the judgment of a generation determined to turn away. Destruction is presented through four kinds of punishment. The image of a mother losing her children intensifies the pain of judgment and shows that national rebellion will have familial and generational consequences.

Und der HERR sprach zu mir: Und wenngleich Mose und Samuel vor mir stünden, so habe ich doch kein Herz zu diesem Volk; treibe sie weg von mir und laß sie hinfahren!
Y díjome Jehová: Si Moisés y Samuel se pusieran delante de mí, mi voluntad no será con este pueblo: échalos de delante de mí, y salgan.
Jehová me dijo: «Aunque Moisés y Samuel se presentaran ante mí, mi alma no se inclinaría hacia este pueblo. Échalos de mi presencia; que se vayan.
L'Eternel me dit: Quand Moïse et Samuel se présenteraient devant moi, Je ne serais pas favorable à ce peuple. Chasse-le loin de ma face, qu'il s'en aille!
Poi il Signore mi disse: Avvegnachè Mosè e Samuele si presentassero davanti alla mia faccia, l’anima mia non sarebbe però inverso questo popolo; mandali fuori della mia presenza, ed escansene fuori.
DISSE-ME, porém, o SENHOR: Ainda que Moisés e Samuel se pusessem diante de mim, não estaria a minha alma com este povo; lança-os de diante da minha face, e saiam.
耶和華對我說:「雖有 摩西 和 撒母耳 站在我面前,我的心也不顧惜這百姓。你把他們從我眼前趕出,叫他們出去吧!
