What right have you to recite my statutes
or take my covenant on your lips?
17 gFor you hate discipline,
hand you cast my words behind you.

jand you keep company with adulterers.

kand your tongue frames deceit.
20You sit and speak against your brother;
you slander your own mother’s son.

Or  that the I am
was one like yourself.
But now I nrebuke you and olay the charge before you.
