Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.
So I'm going to respond with complete fury. I won't hold back or show mercy. Even when they're screaming at the top of their lungs for help, I won't listen to them.
When you push God to his limit, don't expect him to answer when you finally call.
