Then Peter said to her, “Why is it that you have agreed together to put the Spirit of the Lord to the test? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out as well.”

“You say, ‘What does God know?
Can He judge through the thick darkness?

They have said, “The Lord does not see,

Nor does the God of Jacob pay heed.”

Woe to those who deeply hide their plans from the Lord,
And whose deeds are done in a dark place,
And they say, “Who sees us?” or “Who knows us?”

“Can a man hide himself in hiding places
So I do not see him?” declares the Lord.
“Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?” declares the Lord.

Ephraim surrounds Me with lies

And the house of Israel with deceit;
Judah is also unruly against God,
Even against the Holy One who is faithful.

To keep

If a man makes a vow to the Lord, or takes an oath to bind himself with a binding obligation, he shall not violate his word; he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.

“When you make a vow to the Lord your God, you shall not delay to pay it, for it would be sin in you, and the Lord your God will surely require it of you.

It is a trap for a man to say rashly, “It is holy!”
And after the vows to make inquiry.

When you make a vow to God, do not be late in paying it; for He takes no delight in fools. Pay what you vow!

you, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that one shall not steal, do you steal?
