Again{H7725}, When a righteous{H6662} man doth turn{H7725}{(H8800)} from his righteousness{H6664}, and commit{H6213}{(H8804)} iniquity{H5766}, and I lay{H5414}{(H8804)} a stumblingblock{H4383} before{H6440} him, he shall die{H4191}{(H8799)}: because thou hast not given him warning{H2094}{(H8689)}, he shall die{H4191}{(H8799)} in his sin{H2403}, and his righteousness{H6666} which he hath done{H6213}{(H8804)} shall not be remembered{H2142}{(H8735)}; but his blood{H1818} will I require{H1245}{(H8762)} at thine hand{H3027}.

Dan 9:18 : 18 O my God{H430}, incline{H5186}{(H8685)} thine ear{H241}, and hear{H8085}{(H8798)}; open{H6491}{(H8798)} thine eyes{H5869}, and behold{H7200}{(H8798)} our desolations{H8074}{(H8802)}, and the city{H5892} which is called{H7121}{(H8738)} by thy name{H8034}: for we do not present{H5307}{(H8688)} our supplications{H8469} before{H6440} thee for our righteousnesses{H6666}, but for thy great{H7227} mercies{H7356}.
Ezek 7:19 : 19 They shall cast{H7993}{(H8686)} their silver{H3701} in the streets{H2351}, and their gold{H2091} shall be removed{H5079}: their silver{H3701} and their gold{H2091} shall not be able{H3201}{(H8799)} to deliver{H5337}{(H8687)} them in the day{H3117} of the wrath{H5678} of the LORD{H3068}: they shall not satisfy{H7646}{(H8762)} their souls{H5315}, neither fill{H4390}{(H8762)} their bowels{H4578}: because it is the stumblingblock{H4383} of their iniquity{H5771}.
Isa 64:6 : 6 But we are all as an unclean{H2931} thing, and all our righteousnesses{H6666} are as filthy{H5708} rags{H899}; and we all do fade{H5034}{(H8799)}{(H8676)}{H1101}{(H8686)} as a leaf{H5929}; and our iniquities{H5771}, like the wind{H7307}, have taken us away{H5375}{(H8799)}.
Prov 25:12 : 12 As an earring{H5141} of gold{H2091}, and an ornament{H2481} of fine gold{H3800}, so is a wise{H2450} reprover{H3198}{(H8688)} upon an obedient{H8085}{(H8802)} ear{H241}.
Lev 19:17 : 17 Thou shalt not hate{H8130}{(H8799)} thy brother{H251} in thine heart{H3824}: thou shalt in any wise{H3198}{(H8687)} rebuke{H3198}{(H8686)} thy neighbour{H5997}, and not suffer{H5375}{(H8799)} sin{H2399} upon him.
Deut 13:3 : 3 Thou shalt not hearken{H8085}{(H8799)} unto the words{H1697} of that prophet{H5030}, or that dreamer{H2492}{(H8802)} of dreams{H2472}: for the LORD{H3068} your God{H430} proveth{H5254}{(H8764)} you, to know{H3045}{(H8800)} whether ye{H3426} love{H157}{(H8802)} the LORD{H3068} your God{H430} with all your heart{H3824} and with all your soul{H5315}.
2 Sam 12:7-9 : 7 And Nathan{H5416} said{H559}{(H8799)} to David{H1732}, Thou art the man{H376}. Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478}, I anointed{H4886}{(H8804)} thee king{H4428} over Israel{H3478}, and I delivered{H5337}{(H8689)} thee out of the hand{H3027} of Saul{H7586}; 8 And I gave{H5414}{(H8799)} thee thy master's{H113} house{H1004}, and thy master's{H113} wives{H802} into thy bosom{H2436}, and gave{H5414}{(H8799)} thee the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478} and of Judah{H3063}; and if that had been too little{H4592}, I would moreover have given{H3254}{(H8686)} unto thee such{H2007} and such things{H2007}. 9 Wherefore hast thou despised{H959}{(H8804)} the commandment{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}, to do{H6213}{(H8800)} evil{H7451} in his sight{H5869}? thou hast killed{H5221}{(H8689)} Uriah{H223} the Hittite{H2850} with the sword{H2719}, and hast taken{H3947}{(H8804)} his wife{H802} to be thy wife{H802}, and hast slain{H2026}{(H8804)} him with the sword{H2719} of the children{H1121} of Ammon{H5983}. 10 Now therefore the sword{H2719} shall never{H5704}{H5769} depart{H5493}{(H8799)} from thine house{H1004}; because{H6118} thou hast despised{H959}{(H8804)} me, and hast taken{H3947}{(H8799)} the wife{H802} of Uriah{H223} the Hittite{H2850} to be thy wife{H802}. 11 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}, Behold, I will raise up{H6965}{(H8688)} evil{H7451} against thee out of thine own house{H1004}, and I will take{H3947}{(H8804)} thy wives{H802} before thine eyes{H5869}, and give{H5414}{(H8804)} them unto thy neighbour{H7453}, and he shall lie{H7901}{(H8804)} with thy wives{H802} in the sight{H5869} of this sun{H8121}. 12 For thou didst{H6213}{(H8804)} it secretly{H5643}: but I will do{H6213}{(H8799)} this thing{H1697} before all Israel{H3478}, and before the sun{H8121}. 13 And David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Nathan{H5416}, I have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068}. And Nathan{H5416} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto David{H1732}, The LORD{H3068} also hath put away{H5674}{(H8689)} thy sin{H2403}; thou shalt not die{H4191}{(H8799)}.
2 Chr 19:2-4 : 2 And Jehu{H3058} the son{H1121} of Hanani{H2607} the seer{H2374} went out{H3318}{(H8799)} to meet{H6440} him, and said{H559}{(H8799)} to king{H4428} Jehoshaphat{H3092}, Shouldest thou help{H5826}{(H8800)} the ungodly{H7563}, and love{H157}{(H8799)} them that hate{H8130}{(H8802)} the LORD{H3068}? therefore{H2063} is wrath{H7110} upon thee from before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}. 3 Nevertheless{H61} there are good{H2896} things{H1697} found{H4672}{(H8738)} in thee, in that thou hast taken away{H1197}{(H8765)} the groves{H842} out of the land{H776}, and hast prepared{H3559}{(H8689)} thine heart{H3824} to seek{H1875}{(H8800)} God{H430}. 4 And Jehoshaphat{H3092} dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} at Jerusalem{H3389}: and he went out{H3318}{(H8799)} again{H7725}{(H8799)} through the people{H5971} from Beersheba{H884} to mount{H2022} Ephraim{H669}, and brought them back{H7725}{(H8686)} unto the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of their fathers{H1}.
2 Chr 24:2 : 2 And Joash{H3101} did{H6213}{(H8799)} that which was right{H3477} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068} all the days{H3117} of Jehoiada{H3077} the priest{H3548}.
2 Chr 24:17-22 : 17 Now after{H310} the death{H4194} of Jehoiada{H3077} came{H935}{(H8804)} the princes{H8269} of Judah{H3063}, and made obeisance{H7812}{(H8691)} to the king{H4428}. Then the king{H4428} hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} unto them. 18 And they left{H5800}{(H8799)} the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of their fathers{H1}, and served{H5647}{(H8799)} groves{H842} and idols{H6091}: and wrath{H7110} came upon Judah{H3063} and Jerusalem{H3389} for this their trespass{H819}. 19 Yet he sent{H7971}{(H8799)} prophets{H5030} to them, to bring them again{H7725}{(H8687)} unto the LORD{H3068}; and they testified{H5749}{(H8686)} against them: but they would not give ear{H238}{(H8689)}. 20 And the Spirit{H7307} of God{H430} came{H3847}{(H8804)} upon Zechariah{H2148} the son{H1121} of Jehoiada{H3077} the priest{H3548}, which stood{H5975}{(H8799)} above the people{H5971}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} God{H430}, Why transgress{H5674}{(H8802)} ye the commandments{H4687} of the LORD{H3068}, that ye cannot prosper{H6743}{(H8686)}? because ye have forsaken{H5800}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}, he hath also forsaken{H5800}{(H8799)} you. 21 And they conspired{H7194}{(H8799)} against him, and stoned{H7275}{(H8799)} him with stones{H68} at the commandment{H4687} of the king{H4428} in the court{H2691} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}. 22 Thus Joash{H3101} the king{H4428} remembered{H2142}{(H8804)} not the kindness{H2617} which Jehoiada{H3077} his father{H1} had done{H6213}{(H8804)} to him, but slew{H2026}{(H8799)} his son{H1121}. And when he died{H4194}, he said{H559}{(H8804)}, The LORD{H3068} look{H7200}{(H8799)} upon it, and require{H1875}{(H8799)} it.
2 Chr 25:15 : 15 Wherefore the anger{H639} of the LORD{H3068} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)} against Amaziah{H558}, and he sent{H7971}{(H8799)} unto him a prophet{H5030}, which said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Why hast thou sought{H1875}{(H8804)} after the gods{H430} of the people{H5971}, which could not deliver{H5337}{(H8689)} their own people{H5971} out of thine hand{H3027}?
Ps 36:3 : 3 The words{H1697} of his mouth{H6310} are iniquity{H205} and deceit{H4820}: he hath left off{H2308}{(H8804)} to be wise{H7919}{H8687)}, and to do good{H3190}{H8687)}.
Ps 119:165 : 165 Great{H7227} peace{H7965} have they which love{H157}{(H8802)} thy law{H8451}: and nothing shall offend{H4383} them.
