Deut 9:7-9 : 7 Remember{H2142}{(H8798)}, and forget{H7911}{(H8799)} not, how thou provokedst the LORD{H3068} thy God{H430} to wrath{H7107}{(H8689)} in the wilderness{H4057}: from{H4480} the day{H3117} that thou didst depart out{H3318}{(H8804)} of the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714}, until ye came{H935}{(H8800)} unto this place{H4725}, ye have been rebellious{H4784}{(H8688)} against{H5973} the LORD{H3068}. 8 Also in Horeb{H2722} ye provoked{H7107} the LORD{H3068} to wrath{H7107}{(H8689)}, so that the LORD{H3068} was angry{H599}{(H8691)} with you to have destroyed{H8045}{(H8687)} you. 9 When I was gone up{H5927}{(H8800)} into the mount{H2022} to receive{H3947}{(H8800)} the tables{H3871} of stone{H68}, even the tables{H3871} of the covenant{H1285} which the LORD{H3068} made{H3772}{(H8804)} with you, then I abode{H3427}{(H8799)} in the mount{H2022} forty{H705} days{H3117} and forty{H705} nights{H3915}, I neither did eat{H398}{(H8804)} bread{H3899} nor drink{H8354}{(H8804)} water{H4325}: 10 And the LORD{H3068} delivered{H5414}{(H8799)} unto me two{H8147} tables{H3871} of stone{H68} written{H3789}{(H8803)} with the finger{H676} of God{H430}; and on them was written according to all the words{H1697}, which the LORD{H3068} spake{H1696}{(H8765)} with you in the mount{H2022} out of the midst{H8432} of the fire{H784} in the day{H3117} of the assembly{H6951}. 11 And it came to pass at the end{H7093} of forty{H705} days{H3117} and forty{H705} nights{H3915}, that the LORD{H3068} gave{H5414}{(H8804)} me the two{H8147} tables{H3871} of stone{H68}, even the tables{H3871} of the covenant{H1285}. 12 And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto me, Arise{H6965}{(H8798)}, get thee down{H3381}{(H8798)} quickly{H4118} from hence; for thy people{H5971} which thou hast brought forth{H3318}{(H8689)} out of Egypt{H4714} have corrupted{H7843}{(H8765)} themselves; they are quickly{H4118} turned aside{H5493}{(H8804)} out of the way{H1870} which I commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} them; they have made{H6213}{(H8804)} them a molten image{H4541}. 13 Furthermore the LORD{H3068} spake{H559}{(H8799)} unto me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, I have seen{H7200}{(H8804)} this people{H5971}, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked{H6203}{H7186} people{H5971}: 14 Let me alone{H7503}{(H8685)}, that I may destroy{H8045}{(H8686)} them, and blot out{H4229}{(H8799)} their name{H8034} from under heaven{H8064}: and I will make{H6213}{(H8799)} of{H854} thee a nation{H1471} mightier{H6099} and greater{H7227} than they. 15 So I turned{H6437}{(H8799)} and came down{H3381}{(H8799)} from the mount{H2022}, and the mount{H2022} burned{H1197}{(H8802)} with fire{H784}: and the two{H8147} tables{H3871} of the covenant{H1285} were in my two{H8147} hands{H3027}. 16 And I looked{H7200}{(H8799)}, and, behold, ye had sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068} your God{H430}, and had made{H6213}{(H8804)} you a molten{H4541} calf{H5695}: ye had turned aside{H5493}{(H8804)} quickly{H4118} out of the way{H1870} which the LORD{H3068} had commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} you. 17 And I took{H8610}{(H8799)} the two{H8147} tables{H3871}, and cast{H7993}{(H8686)} them out of{H5921} my two{H8147} hands{H3027}, and brake{H7665}{(H8762)} them before your eyes{H5869}. 18 And I fell down{H5307}{(H8691)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, as at the first{H7223}, forty{H705} days{H3117} and forty{H705} nights{H3915}: I did neither eat{H398}{(H8804)} bread{H3899}, nor drink{H8354}{(H8804)} water{H4325}, because of all your sins{H2403} which ye sinned{H2398}{(H8804)}, in doing{H6213}{(H8800)} wickedly{H7451} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, to provoke him to anger{H3707}{(H8687)}. 19 For I was afraid{H3025}{(H8804)} of{H6440} the anger{H639} and hot displeasure{H2534}, wherewith the LORD{H3068} was wroth{H7107}{(H8804)} against you to destroy{H8045}{(H8687)} you. But the LORD{H3068} hearkened{H8085}{(H8799)} unto me at that time{H6471} also. 20 And the LORD{H3068} was very{H3966} angry{H599}{(H8694)} with Aaron{H175} to have destroyed{H8045}{(H8687)} him: and I prayed{H6419}{(H8691)} for Aaron{H175} also the same time{H6256}. 21 And I took{H3947}{(H8804)} your sin{H2403}, the calf{H5695} which ye had made{H6213}{(H8804)}, and burnt{H8313}{(H8799)} it with fire{H784}, and stamped{H3807}{(H8799)} it, and ground{H2912}{(H8800)} it very small{H3190}{(H8687)}, even until it was as small{H1854}{(H8804)} as dust{H6083}: and I cast{H7993}{(H8686)} the dust{H6083} thereof into the brook{H5158} that descended out{H3381}{(H8802)} of the mount{H2022}.
Jas 4:8 : 8 Draw nigh{G1448}{(G5657)} to God{G2316}, and{G2532} he will draw nigh{G1448}{(G5692)} to you{G5213}. Cleanse{G2511}{(G5657)} your hands{G5495}, ye sinners{G268}; and{G2532} purify{G48}{(G5657)} your hearts{G2588}, ye double minded{G1374}.
Ezek 20:28 : 28 For when I had brought{H935}{(H8686)} them into the land{H776}, for the which I lifted up{H5375}{(H8804)} mine hand{H3027} to give{H5414}{(H8800)} it to them, then they saw{H7200}{(H8799)} every high{H7311}{(H8802)} hill{H1389}, and all the thick{H5687} trees{H6086}, and they offered{H2076}{(H8799)} there their sacrifices{H2077}, and there they presented{H5414}{(H8799)} the provocation{H3708} of their offering{H7133}: there also they made{H7760}{(H8799)} their sweet{H5207} savour{H7381}, and poured out{H5258}{(H8686)} there their drink offerings{H5262}.
Acts 7:51-52 : 51 Ye stiffnecked{G4644} and{G2532} uncircumcised{G564} in heart{G2588} and{G2532} ears{G3775}, ye{G5210} do{G496} always{G104} resist{G496}{(G5719)} the Holy{G40} Ghost{G4151}: as{G5613} your{G5216} fathers{G3962} did, so{G2532} do ye{G5210}. 52 Which{G5101} of the prophets{G4396} have{G1377} not{G3756} your{G5216} fathers{G3962} persecuted{G1377}{(G5656)}? and{G2532} they have slain{G615}{(G5656)} them which{G3588} shewed before{G4293}{(G5660)} of{G4012} the coming{G1660} of the Just One{G1342}; of whom{G3739} ye{G5210} have been{G1096}{(G5769)} now{G3568} the betrayers{G4273} and{G2532} murderers{G5406}:
Rom 7:9 : 9 For{G1161} I{G1473} was alive{G2198}{(G5707)} without{G5565} the law{G3551} once{G4218}: but{G1161} when the commandment{G1785} came{G2064}{(G5631)}, sin{G266} revived{G326}{(G5656)}, and{G1161} I{G1473} died{G599}{(G5627)}.
Rom 10:3 : 3 For{G1063} they being ignorant{G50}{(G5723)} of God's{G2316} righteousness{G1343}, and{G2532} going about{G2212}{(G5723)} to establish{G2476}{(G5658)} their own{G2398} righteousness{G1343}, have{G5293} not{G3756} submitted themselves{G5293}{(G5648)} unto the righteousness{G1343} of God{G2316}.
Mal 3:13 : 13 Your words{H1697} have been stout{H2388}{(H8804)} against me, saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}. Yet ye say{H559}{(H8804)}, What have we spoken{H1696}{(H8738)} so much against thee?
Matt 23:27 : 27 Woe{G3759} unto you{G5213}, scribes{G1122} and{G2532} Pharisees{G5330}, hypocrites{G5273}! for{G3754} ye are like{G3945}{(G5719)} unto whited{G2867}{(G5772)} sepulchres{G5028}, which{G3748} indeed{G3303} appear{G5316}{(G5727)} beautiful{G5611} outward{G1855}, but{G1161} are within{G2081} full{G1073}{(G5719)} of dead{G3498} men's bones{G3747}, and{G2532} of all{G3956} uncleanness{G167}.
Luke 11:48-51 : 48 Truly{G686} ye bear witness{G3140}{(G5719)} that{G2532} ye allow{G4909}{(G5719)} the deeds{G2041} of your{G5216} fathers{G3962}: for{G3754} they{G846} indeed{G3303} killed{G615}{(G5656)} them{G846}, and{G1161} ye{G5210} build{G3618}{(G5719)} their{G846} sepulchres{G3419}. 49 Therefore{G1223}{G5124} also{G2532} said{G2036}{(G5627)} the wisdom{G4678} of God{G2316}, I will send{G649}{(G5692)}{G1519} them{G846} prophets{G4396} and{G2532} apostles{G652}, and{G2532} some of{G1537} them{G846} they shall slay{G615}{(G5692)} and{G2532} persecute{G1559}{(G5692)}: 50 That{G2443} the blood{G129} of all{G3956} the prophets{G4396}, which{G3588} was shed{G1632}{(G5746)} from{G575} the foundation{G2602} of the world{G2889}, may be required{G1567}{(G5686)} of{G575} this{G5026} generation{G1074}; 51 From{G575} the blood{G129} of Abel{G6} unto{G2193} the blood{G129} of Zacharias{G2197}, which{G3588} perished{G622}{(G5642)} between{G3342} the altar{G2379} and{G2532} the temple{G3624}: verily{G3483} I say{G3004}{(G5719)} unto you{G5213}, It shall be required{G1567}{(G5701)} of{G575} this{G5026} generation{G1074}.
Ps 78:8-9 : 8 And might not be as their fathers{H1}, a stubborn{H5637}{H8802)} and rebellious{H4784}{H8802)} generation{H1755}; a generation{H1755} that set{H3559} not their heart{H3820} aright{H3559}{H8689)}, and whose spirit{H7307} was not stedfast{H539}{H8738)} with God{H410}. 9 The children{H1121} of Ephraim{H669}, being armed{H5401}{H8802)}, and carrying{H7411}{H8802)} bows{H7198}, turned back{H2015}{H8804)} in the day{H3117} of battle{H7128}. 10 They kept{H8104}{H8804)} not the covenant{H1285} of God{H430}, and refused{H3985}{H8765)} to walk{H3212}{H8800)} in his law{H8451};
Deut 31:27-29 : 27 For I know{H3045}{(H8804)} thy rebellion{H4805}, and thy stiff{H7186} neck{H6203}: behold, while I am yet alive{H2416} with you this day{H3117}, ye have been rebellious{H4784}{(H8688)} against the LORD{H3068}; and how much more after{H310} my death{H4194}? 28 Gather{H6950}{(H8685)} unto me all the elders{H2205} of your tribes{H7626}, and your officers{H7860}{(H8802)}, that I may speak{H1696}{(H8762)} these words{H1697} in their ears{H241}, and call{H5749} heaven{H8064} and earth{H776} to record{H5749}{(H8686)} against them. 29 For I know{H3045}{(H8804)} that after{H310} my death{H4194} ye will utterly{H7843}{(H8687)} corrupt{H7843}{(H8686)} yourselves, and turn aside{H5493}{(H8804)} from the way{H1870} which I have commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} you; and evil{H7451} will befall{H7122}{(H8804)} you in the latter{H319} days{H3117}; because ye will do{H6213}{(H8799)} evil{H7451} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, to provoke him to anger{H3707}{(H8687)} through the work{H4639} of your hands{H3027}.
