Analysis of Seek me



Seek me.
You will find me.
I say, “Here I am.”

I spread out my hands.
You rebellious people.
You walk away.
You continue to provoke me.

You seek your idols.
You conjure up evil.
You are smoke in my nostrils.

You rebellious people.
You will cry with a heavy heart.
You will wail and nash your teeth.
You will be hidden for sight.    

For my children that seek me.
I will give you new wine.
Do not destroy it.
There will be blessings.
You will benefit.  
My children you will inherit.
