This is so sad and often so true that people will only seek the Lord at a point of crisis.
V 15......in their misery they will earnestly seek me.”
The spirit of whoredom is within the house of Israel and "they know not the Lord." God will "return again to my place until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face, and in their distress earnestly seek me."
