2 Kings 21:12-15
12therefore thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Behold, I am bringing upon Jerusalem and Judah such disaster ▼▼Or evil
that the ears of everyone who hears of it bwill tingle. 13 cAnd I will stretch over Jerusalem the measuring line of Samaria, and the plumb line of the house of Ahab, and I will wipe Jerusalem as one wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down. 14And I will forsake the remnant of my heritage and give them into the hand of their enemies, and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies, 15because they have done what is evil in my sight and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came out of Egypt, even to this day.” Psalms 7:9
9Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end,and may you establish the righteous—
you who dtest ethe minds and hearts, ▼
▼Hebrew the hearts and kidneys
O righteous God!
Jeremiah 2:34
34Also on your skirts is foundgthe lifeblood of the guiltless poor;
you did not find them hbreaking in.
Yet in spite of all these things
Ezekiel 23:48
48 iThus will I put an end to lewdness in the land, that all women may take warning and not commit lewdness as you have done.Zephaniah 1:12
12At that time jI will search Jerusalem with lamps,and I will punish the men
kwho are complacent, ▼
▼Hebrew are thickening on the dregs [of their wine]
mthose who say in their hearts,
‘The Lord will not do good,
nor will he do ill.’
