24:016:016 Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith
the lord, and they
shall
fish them; and after will I send for many hunters,
and
they
shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every
hill,
and
out of the holes of the rocks.
24:016:017 For mine eyes are upon all their ways:
they are not hid from
my
face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes.
24:016:018 And first I will recompense their iniquity
and their sin
double;
because they have defiled my land, they have filled
mine
inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and
abominable
things.
24:016:019 O lord, my strength, and my fortress,
and my refuge in the day
of
affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from
the ends
of
the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited
lies,
vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
24:016:020 Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no gods?
24:016:021 Therefore, behold, I will this once cause
them to know, I will
cause
them to know mine hand and my might; and they shall
know
that
my name is The lord.
24:017:001 The sin of Judah is written with a pen
of iron, and with the
point
of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their
heart,
and upon the horns of your altars;
24:017:002 Whilst their children remember their altars
and their groves
by
the green trees upon the high hills.
24:017:003 O my mountain in the field, I will give
thy substance and all
thy
treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin,
throughout
all thy borders.
24:017:004 And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue
from thine heritage
that
I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies
in
the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled
a fire
in
mine anger, which shall burn for ever.
24:017:005 Thus saith the lord; Cursed be the
man that trusteth in man,
and
maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from
the
lord.
24:017:006 For he shall be like the heath in the desert,
and shall not
see
when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places
in
the
wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
24:017:007 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the
lord, and whose hope
the
lord is.
24:017:008 For he shall be as a tree planted by the
waters, and that
spreadeth
out her roots by the river, and shall not see when
heat
cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not
be
careful
in the year of drought, neither shall cease from
yielding
fruit.
