By this deed

Again I said, “The thing which you are doing is not good; should you not walk in the fear of our God because of the reproach of the nations, our enemies?

How long, O God, will the adversary revile,
And the enemy spurn Your name forever?

Now therefore, what do I have here,” declares the Lord, “seeing that My people have been taken away without cause?” Again the Lord declares, “Those who rule over them howl, and My name is continually blasphemed all day long.

When they came to the nations where they went, they profaned My holy name, because it was said of them, ‘These are the people of the Lord; yet they have come out of His land.’

“Woe to the world because of its stumbling blocks! For it is inevitable that stumbling blocks come; but woe to that man through whom the stumbling block comes!

For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles

because of you,” just as it is written.

The child

If they violate My statutes
And do not keep My commandments,

Blessed is the man whom You chasten, O Lord,
And whom You teach out of Your law;

My son, do not reject the discipline of the Lord

Or loathe His reproof,

“You only have I chosen among all the families of the earth;
Therefore I will

punish you for all your iniquities.”

But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord so that we will not be condemned along with the world.

For those

whom the Lord loves He disciplines,

And He scourges every son whom He receives.”

Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent.
