Bible References

Were

“Therefore the showers have been withheld,
And there has been no spring rain.
Yet you had a harlot’s forehead;
You refused to be ashamed.

“Were they ashamed because of the abomination they had done?
They certainly were not ashamed,
And they did not know how to blush;
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
At the time of their punishment they shall be brought down,”
Says the Lord.

The expression of their faces bears witness against them,

And they display their sin like Sodom;
They do not even conceal it.
Woe to them!
For they have brought evil on themselves.

Blush

I am sending you to them who are

stubborn and obstinate children, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God.’

that you built yourself a shrine and made yourself a high place in every square.

“For her blood is in her midst;
She placed it on the bare rock;
She did not pour it on the ground
To cover it with dust.

The Lord is righteous within her;
He will do no injustice.

Every morning He brings His justice to light;

He does not fail.
But the unjust knows no shame.

whose end is destruction, whose god is their

appetite, and whose glory is in their shame, who set their minds on earthly things.

Therefore

“Therefore their way will be like slippery paths to them,
They will be driven away into the gloom and fall down in it;
For I will bring calamity upon them,
The year of their punishment,” declares the Lord.

A man who hardens his neck after much reproof
Will suddenly be broken beyond remedy.

Nothing remains but to crouch among the captives
Or fall among the slain.

In spite of all this, His anger does not turn away

And His hand is still stretched out.

“But if the prophet is prevailed upon to speak a word, it is I, the Lord, who have prevailed upon that prophet, and I will stretch out My hand against him and destroy him from among My people Israel.

Therefore it will be night for you—without vision,
And darkness for you—without divination.
The sun will go down on the prophets,
And the day will become dark over them.

Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind. And if a blind man guides a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”

At the time

“Shall I not punish these people,” declares the Lord,
“And on a nation such as this

Shall I not avenge Myself?

But go now, lead the people where I told you. Behold, My angel shall go before you; nevertheless in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin.”

An end is coming; the end has come! It has awakened against you; behold, it has come!

The days of punishment have come,
The days of retribution have come;

Let Israel know this!

The prophet is a fool,
The inspired man is demented,
Because of the grossness of your iniquity,
And because your hostility is so great.

The best of them is like a briar,
The most upright like a thorn hedge.
The day when you post your watchmen,
Your punishment will come.
Then their confusion will occur.
