I know

For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.

The boastful cannot stand in Your presence;
You hate all evildoers.

Your eyes are too pure to look on evil,
and You cannot tolerate wrongdoing.
So why do You tolerate those who are treacherous?
Why are You silent
while one who is wicked swallows up
one who is more righteous than himself?

Then you will say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets!’

We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He listens to him.

My sheep hear My voice, I know them, and they follow Me.

But if anyone loves God, he is known by Him.

But now, since you know God, or rather have become known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and bankrupt elemental forces? Do you want to be enslaved to them all over again?

Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, having this inscription:

The Lord knows those who are His,

and

Everyone who names the name of the Lord
must turn away from unrighteousness.
