- The LORD[YHWH]:
- "What¹ [is] the Almighty,ª that¹ we should serveª° him? and what¹ profitª° should we have, if¹ we prayª° unto him?" {Job 21:15} + "He hath saidª° in his heart,ª Godª hath forgotten:ª° he hidethª° his face;ª he will neverª¹ seeª° [it]. ... Wherefore¹¹ doth the wickedª contemnª° God?ª he hath saidª° in his heart,ª Thou wilt not¹ requireª° [it]." {Psa 10:11-13} + "[[To the chief Musician,ª° [A Psalm] of David.]]ª The foolª hath saidª° in his heart,ª [There is] no¹ God.ª They are corrupt,ª° they have done abominableª° works,ª [there is] none¹ that doethª° good.ª" {Psa 14:1} + "Yet they say,ª° The LORDª shall not¹ see,ª° neither¹ shall the Godª of Jacobª regardª° [it]." {Psa 94:7} + "That say,ª° Let him make speed,ª° [and] hastenª° his work,ª that¹ we may seeª° [it]: and let the counselª of the Holy Oneª of Israelª draw nighª° and come,ª° that we may knowª° [it]!" {Isa 5:19} + "They¹ [are] uprightª as the palm tree,ª but speakª° not:¹ they must needs²° be borne,ª° because¹ they cannot¹ go.ª° Be not¹ afraidª° of¹ them; for¹ they cannot¹ do evil,ª° neither¹ also¹ [is it] in¹ them to do good.ª°" {Jer 10:5} + "Then saidª° he unto¹ me, Sonª of man,ª hast thou seenª° what¹ the ancientsª of the houseª of Israelª doª° in the dark,ª every manª in the chambersª of his imagery?ª for¹ they say,ª° The LORDª seethª° us not;¹ the LORDª hath forsakenª°¹ the earth.ª" {Ezk 8:12} + "Then saidª° he unto¹ me, The iniquityª of the houseª of Israelª and Judahª [is] exceedingª great,ª and the landª is fullª° of blood,ª and the cityª fullª° of perverseness:ª for¹ they say,ª° The LORDª hath forsakenª°¹ the earth,ª and the LORDª seethª° not.¹" {Ezk 9:9} + "Ye have said,ª° It [is] vainª to serveª° God:ª and what¹ profitª [is it] that¹ we have keptª° his ordinance,ª and that¹ we have walkedª° mournfullyª beforeª¹ the LORDª of hosts?ª ... And now¹ we¹ call²° the proud² happy;ª°¹ yea,¹ they that workª° wickednessª are set up;ª° yea,¹ [they that] temptª° Godª are even delivered.ª°" {Mal 3:14-15} + "Andª saying,ª° Whereª isª° the¹ promiseª of hisª coming?ª forª sinceªª the¹ fathersª fell asleep,ª° all thingsª continueª²° as¹ [they were] fromª the beginningª of the creation.ª" {2Pe 3:4}
