2 Chronicles 33:6-7

6 aAnd he burned his sons as an offering bin the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, and cused fortune-telling and omens and sorcery, and dealt with dmediums and with necromancers. He did much evil in the sight of the Lord, provoking him to anger. 7And ethe carved image of the idol that he had made he set in the house of God, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, fI will put my name forever,

Isaiah 65:3-5

3a people who provoke me
to my face continually,
gsacrificing in gardens
and making offerings on bricks;
4who sit in tombs,
and spend the night in secret places;
hwho eat pig’s flesh,
and broth of tainted meat is in their vessels;
5who say, “Keep to yourself,
do not come near me, for I am too holy for you.”
iThese are a smoke in my nostrils,
a fire that burns all the day.

Ezekiel 8:4-6

4And behold, jthe glory of the God of Israel was there, like the vision that I saw kin the valley.

5Then he said to me, lSon of man, lift up your eyes now toward the north.” So I lifted up my eyes toward the north, and behold, north of mthe altar gate, in the entrance, was this nimage of jealousy. 6And he said to me, “Son of man, odo you see what they are doing, pthe great abominations that the house of Israel are committing here, qto drive me far from my sanctuary? But you will see still greater abominations.”

Ezekiel 8:17-18

17Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, O rson of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit sthe abominations that they commit here, that tthey should fill the land with violence and uprovoke me still further to anger? Behold, they put the branch to their
Or my
nose.
18Therefore wI will act in wrath. xMy eye will not spare, nor will I have pity. yAnd though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.”

Habakkuk 1:13

13You who are zof purer eyes than to see evil
and cannot look at wrong,
aawhy do you idly look at traitors
and abremain silent when the wicked swallows up
the man more righteous than he?

1 Corinthians 10:22
