28:003:004 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a
king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and
without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim:
28:003:005 Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the
LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD
and his goodness in the latter days.
28:004:001 Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
28:004:002 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
28:004:003 Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
28:004:004 Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
28:004:005 Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
28:004:006 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
28:004:007 As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore
will I change their glory into shame.
28:004:008 They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on
their iniquity.
