Judgment And Salvation

3 A people who make me angry every day, making offerings in gardens, and burning perfumes on bricks. 4 Who are seated in the resting-places of the dead, and by night are in the secret places; who take pig's flesh for food, and have the liquid of disgusting things in their vessels. 5 Who say, Keep away, do not come near me, for fear that I make you holy: these are a smoke in my nose, a fire burning all day.
