- "For when ye offerª° your gifts,ª when ye make your sonsª to pass¹ through²° the fire,ª ye¹ pollute²° yourselves¹ with all¹ your idols,ª even unto¹ this day:ª and shall I¹ be enquired²° of¹ by you, O houseª of Israel?ª [As] I¹ live,ª saithª° the Lordª GOD,ª I will not¹ be enquired²° of¹ by you." {Ezk 20:31} + "Sonª of man,ª these¹ men²¹ have set upª° their idolsª in¹ their heart,ª and putª° the stumblingblockª of their iniquityª beforeª their face:ª should I be enquired²° of at allª° by them? ... Therefore¹ speakª° unto them, and sayª° unto¹ them, Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD;ª Every manª of the houseª¹ of Israelª that¹ setteth upª°¹ his idolsª in¹ his heart,ª and puttethª° the stumblingblockª of his iniquityª beforeª his face,ª and comethª° to¹ the prophet;ª I¹ the LORDª will answerª° him that comethª° according to the multitudeª of his idols;ª" {Ezk 14:3-4} + "For¹ every oneª of the houseª¹ of Israel,ª or of the strangerª¹ that¹ sojournethª° in Israel,ª which separateth²° himself¹ from¹¹ me,² and setteth upª° his idolsª in¹ his heart,ª and puttethª° the stumblingblockª of his iniquityª beforeª his face,ª and comethª° to¹ a prophetª to enquireª° of him concerning me; I¹ the LORDª will answerª° him by myself: ... And I will setª° my faceª against that¹ man,ª and will make²°¹ him a signª and a proverb,ª and I will cut him offª° from the midstª¹ of my people;ª and ye shall knowª° that¹ I¹ [am] the LORD.ª" {Ezk 14:7-8} + "And when Saulª enquiredª° of the LORD,ª the LORDª answeredª° him not,¹ neither¹ by dreams,ª nor¹ by Urim,ª nor¹ by prophets.ª" {1Sm 28:6} + "And call²° upon¹ me in the dayª of trouble:ª I will deliverª° thee, and thou shalt glorifyª° me. ... 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 50:15-21} + "The sacrificeª of the wickedª [is] an abominationª to the LORD:ª but the prayerª of the uprightª [is] his delight.ª" {Prv 15:8} + "The sacrificeª of the wickedª [is] abomination:ª how much more,¹¹ [when] he bringethª° it with a wicked mind?ª" {Prv 21:27} + "He that turneth awayª° his earª from hearingª°¹ the law,ª even¹ his prayerª [shall be] abomination.ª" {Prv 28:9} + "And when ye spread forthª° your hands,ª I will hideª° mine eyesª from¹ you: yea,¹ when¹ ye make manyª° prayers,ª I will not¹ hear:ª° your handsª are fullª° of blood.ª" {Isa 1:15} + "Then shall the seersª be ashamed,ª° and the divinersª° confounded:ª° yea, they shall all¹ coverª°¹ their lips;ª for¹ [there is] no¹ answerª of God.ª" {Mic 3:7} + "Thisª peopleª draweth nighª° unto meª with their²¹ mouth,ª andª honourethª° meª with [their] lips;ª butª theirª heartª isª° farª fromª me.ª ...
