1:14 I hate your new moon festivals and assemblies;
they are a burden
that I am tired of carrying.
2:9 Men bow down to them in homage,
they lie flat on the ground in worship.
Don’t spare them!
3:8 Jerusalem certainly stumbles,
Judah falls,
for their words and their actions offend the Lord;
they rebel against his royal authority.
10:29 They went through the pass,
spent the night at Geba.
Ramah trembled,
Gibeah of Saul ran away.
17:2 The cities of Aroer are abandoned.
They will be used for herds,
which will lie down there in peace.
17:7 At that time men will trust in their creator;
they will depend on the Holy One of Israel.
22:8 They removed the defenses of Judah.
At that time you looked
for the weapons in the House of the Forest.
24:5 The earth is defiled by its inhabitants,
for they have violated laws,
disregarded the regulation,
and broken the permanent treaty.
30:9 For these are rebellious people –
they are lying children,
children unwilling to obey the Lord’s law.
33:3 The nations run away when they hear a loud noise;
the nations scatter when you spring into action!
44:18 They do not comprehend or understand,
for their eyes are blind and cannot see;
their minds do not discern.
48:3 “I announced events beforehand,
I issued the decrees and made the predictions;
suddenly I acted and they came to pass.
48:13 Yes, my hand founded the earth;
my right hand spread out the sky.
I summon them;
they stand together.
57:12 I will denounce your so-called righteousness and your deeds,
but they will not help you.
63:8 He said, “Certainly they will be my people,
children who are not disloyal.”
He became their deliverer.
63:10 But they rebelled and offended his holy Spirit,
so he turned into an enemy
and fought against them.
63:13 who led them through the deep water?
Like a horse running on flat land they did not stumble.
63:19 We existed from ancient times,
but you did not rule over them,
they were not your subjects.
65:3 These people continually and blatantly offend me
as they sacrifice in their sacred orchards
and burn incense on brick altars.
