403 B

General Information:

Yahweh continues speaking about the people of Israel.

Look, it is written

"Take notice and pay attention"

into their laps

This means God will punish them to the fullest extent. This expression compares Yahweh punishing the people to dumping on their legs as they are sitting. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
