A Call For Repentance

23 Truly the hills are a deception, and the mountains are confusion. Truly, in the LORD our God is Israel's salvation." 24 Since our youth the false gods have consumed the products of our ancestors' hard work, their sheep and their cattle, their sons and their daughters. 25 "Let us lie down in our shame, and let our humiliation cover us, because both we and our ancestors have sinned against the LORD our God from our youth until this present time. We haven't obeyed the LORD our God."
