- What meaneth:
- "For¹ he flatterethª°¹ himself in his own eyes,ª until his iniquityª be foundª° to be hateful.ª°" {Psa 36:2} + "But unto the wickedª Godª saith,ª° What¹ hast thou to do to declareª° my statutes,ª or [that] thou shouldest takeª° my covenantª in¹ thy mouth?ª ... These¹ [things] hast thou done,ª° and I kept silence;ª° thou thoughtestª° that I was¹ altogetherª° [such an one] as thyself:¹ [but] I will reproveª° thee, and set [them] in orderª° before thine eyes.ª" {Psa 50:16-21} + "And now¹ what¹ hast thou to do in the wayª of Egypt,ª to drinkª° the watersª of Sihor?ª or what¹ hast thou to do in the wayª of Assyria,ª to drinkª° the watersª of the river?ª ... Thine own wickednessª shall correctª° thee, and thy backslidingsª shall reproveª° thee: knowª° therefore and seeª° that¹ [it is] an evilª [thing] and bitter,ª that thou hast forsakenª°¹ the LORDª thy God,ª and that my fearª [is] not¹ in¹ thee, saithª° the Lordª GODª of hosts.ª" {Jer 2:18-19} + "For¹ though¹ thou washª° thee with nitre,ª and take thee muchª° soap,ª [yet] thine iniquityª is markedª° beforeª me, saithª° the Lordª GOD.ª ... How¹ canst thou say,ª° I am not¹ polluted,ª° I have not¹ goneª° afterª Baalim?ª seeª° thy wayª in the valley,ª knowª° what¹ thou hast done:ª° [thou art] a swiftª dromedaryª traversingª° her ways;ª" {Jer 2:22-23} + "Also¹ in thy skirtsª is foundª° the bloodª of the soulsª of the poorª innocents:ª I have not¹ foundª° it by secret search,ª but¹ upon¹ all¹ these.¹ ... Yea,¹ thou shalt go forthª° from¹¹ him,¹ and thine handsª upon¹ thine head:ª for¹ the LORDª hath rejectedª° thy confidences,ª and thou shalt not¹ prosperª° in them." {Jer 2:34-37} + "Your wordsª have been stoutª° against¹ me, saithª° the LORD.ª Yet ye say,ª° What¹ have we spokenª° [so much] against¹ thee? ...
