  • 2 Chr 36:14-17 : 14 Moreover all the chief{H8269} of the priests{H3548}, and the people{H5971}, transgressed{H4603}{(H8800)} very{H4604} much{H7235}{(H8689)} after all the abominations{H8441} of the heathen{H1471}; and polluted{H2930}{(H8762)} the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068} which he had hallowed{H6942}{(H8689)} in Jerusalem{H3389}. 15 And the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of their fathers{H1} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} to them by{H3027} his messengers{H4397}, rising up betimes{H7925}{(H8687)}, and sending{H7971}{(H8800)}; because he had compassion{H2550}{(H8804)} on his people{H5971}, and on his dwelling place{H4583}: 16 But they mocked{H3931}{(H8688)} the messengers{H4397} of God{H430}, and despised{H959}{(H8802)} his words{H1697}, and misused{H8591}{(H8700)} his prophets{H5030}, until the wrath{H2534} of the LORD{H3068} arose{H5927}{(H8800)} against his people{H5971}, till there was no remedy{H4832}. 17 Therefore he brought{H5927}{(H8686)} upon them the king{H4428} of the Chaldees{H3778}, who slew{H2026}{(H8799)} their young men{H970} with the sword{H2719} in the house{H1004} of their sanctuary{H4720}, and had no compassion{H2550}{(H8804)} upon young man{H970} or maiden{H1330}, old man{H2205}, or him that stooped for age{H3486}: he gave{H5414}{(H8804)} them all into his hand{H3027}.
  • Ps 9:16 : 16 The LORD{H3068} is known{H3045}{(H8738)} by the judgment{H4941} which he executeth{H6213}{(H8804)}: the wicked{H7563} is snared{H5367}{(H8804)} in the work{H6467} of his own hands{H3709}. Higgaion{H1902}. Selah{H5542}.
  • Ps 83:17-18 : 17 Let them be confounded{H954}{H8799)} and troubled{H926}{H8735)} for ever{H5703}; yea, let them be put to shame{H2659}{H8799)}, and perish{H6}{H8799)}: 18 That men may know{H3045}{H8799)} that thou, whose name{H8034} alone is JEHOVAH{H3068}, art the most high{H5945} over all the earth{H776}.
  • Jer 5:1-9 : 1 Run ye to and fro{H7751}{(H8786)} through the streets{H2351} of Jerusalem{H3389}, and see{H7200}{(H8798)} now, and know{H3045}{(H8798)}, and seek{H1245}{(H8761)} in the broad places{H7339} thereof, if ye can find{H4672}{(H8799)} a man{H376}, if there be{H3426} any that executeth{H6213}{(H8802)} judgment{H4941}, that seeketh{H1245}{(H8764)} the truth{H530}; and I will pardon{H5545}{(H8799)} it. 2 And though they say{H559}{(H8799)}, The LORD{H3068} liveth{H2416}; surely they swear{H7650}{(H8735)} falsely{H8267}. 3 O LORD{H3068}, are not thine eyes{H5869} upon the truth{H530}? thou hast stricken{H5221}{(H8689)} them, but they have not grieved{H2342}{(H8804)}; thou hast consumed{H3615}{(H8765)} them, but they have refused{H3985}{(H8765)} to receive{H3947}{(H8800)} correction{H4148}: they have made their faces{H6440} harder{H2388}{(H8765)} than a rock{H5553}; they have refused{H3985}{(H8765)} to return{H7725}{(H8800)}. 4 Therefore I said{H559}{(H8804)}, Surely these are poor{H1800}; they are foolish{H2973}{(H8738)}: for they know{H3045}{(H8804)} not the way{H1870} of the LORD{H3068}, nor the judgment{H4941} of their God{H430}. 5 I will get{H3212}{(H8799)} me unto the great men{H1419}, and will speak{H1696}{(H8762)} unto them; for they have known{H3045}{(H8804)} the way{H1870} of the LORD{H3068}, and the judgment{H4941} of their God{H430}: but these have altogether{H3162} broken{H7665}{(H8804)} the yoke{H5923}, and burst{H5423}{(H8765)} the bonds{H4147}. 6 Wherefore a lion{H738} out of the forest{H3293} shall slay{H5221}{(H8689)} them, and a wolf{H2061} of the evenings{H6160} shall spoil{H7703}{(H8799)} them, a leopard{H5246} shall watch{H8245}{(H8802)} over their cities{H5892}: every one that goeth out{H3318}{(H8802)} thence shall{H2007} be torn in pieces{H2963}{(H8735)}: because their transgressions{H6588} are many{H7231}{(H8804)}, and their backslidings{H4878} are increased{H6105}{(H8804)}. 7 How{H335} shall I pardon{H5545}{(H8799)} thee for this{H2063}? thy children{H1121} have forsaken{H5800}{(H8804)} me, and sworn{H7650}{(H8735)} by them that are no{H3808} gods{H430}: when I had fed them to the full{H7650}{(H8686)}, they then committed adultery{H5003}{(H8799)}, and assembled themselves by troops{H1413}{(H8704)} in the harlots{H2181}{(H8802)}' houses{H1004}. 8 They were as fed{H2109}{(H8716)} horses{H5483} in the morning{H7904}{(H8688)}: every one{H376} neighed{H6670}{(H8799)} after his neighbour's{H7453} wife{H802}. 9 Shall I not visit{H6485}{(H8799)} for these things? saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}: and shall not my soul{H5315} be avenged{H5358}{(H8691)} on such a nation{H1471} as this?
  • Jer 5:25-31 : 25 Your iniquities{H5771} have turned away{H5186}{(H8689)} these things, and your sins{H2403} have withholden{H4513}{(H8804)} good{H2896} things from you. 26 For among my people{H5971} are found{H4672}{(H8738)} wicked{H7563} men: they lay wait{H7789}{(H8799)}, as he that setteth{H7918}{(H8800)} snares{H3353}; they set{H5324}{(H8689)} a trap{H4889}, they catch{H3920}{(H8799)} men{H582}. 27 As a cage{H3619} is full{H4392} of birds{H5775}, so are their houses{H1004} full{H4392} of deceit{H4820}: therefore they are become great{H1431}{(H8804)}, and waxen rich{H6238}{(H8686)}. 28 They are waxen fat{H8080}{(H8804)}, they shine{H6245}{(H8804)}: yea, they overpass{H5674}{(H8804)} the deeds{H1697} of the wicked{H7451}: they judge{H1777}{(H8804)} not the cause{H1779}, the cause of the fatherless{H3490}, yet they prosper{H6743}{(H8686)}; and the right{H4941} of the needy{H34} do they not judge{H8199}{(H8804)}. 29 Shall I not visit{H6485}{(H8799)} for these things? saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}: shall not my soul{H5315} be avenged{H5358}{(H8691)} on such a nation{H1471} as this? 30 A wonderful{H8047} and horrible thing{H8186} is committed{H1961}{(H8738)} in the land{H776}; 31 The prophets{H5030} prophesy{H5012}{(H8738)} falsely{H8267}, and the priests{H3548} bear rule{H7287}{(H8799)} by their means{H3027}; and my people{H5971} love{H157}{(H8804)} to have it so: and what will ye do{H6213}{(H8799)} in the end{H319} thereof?
