I will not listen.

O people in Zion, inhabitant in Jerusalem, you will weep no longer. He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry; when He hears it, He will answer you.

The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous
And His ears are open to their cry.

Delight yourself in the Lord;

And He will give you the desires of your heart.

Call upon Me in the day of trouble;

I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me.”

The yoke

“Is this not the fast which I choose,
To loosen the bonds of wickedness,
To undo the bands of the yoke,
And to let the oppressed go free
And break every yoke?

The putting

“Against whom do you jest?
Against whom do you open wide your mouth
And stick out your tongue?
Are you not children of rebellion,
Offspring of deceit,

Who winks with his eyes, who signals with his feet,
Who points with his fingers;

Speaking

For your hands are defiled with blood
And your fingers with iniquity;
Your lips have spoken falsehood,
Your tongue mutters wickedness.

They speak falsehood to one another;
With flattering lips and with a double heart they speak.

Therefore, thus says the Lord God, “Because you have spoken falsehood and seen a lie, therefore behold, I am against you,” declares the Lord God.

For the teraphim speak iniquity,
And the diviners see lying visions
And tell false dreams;
They comfort in vain.
Therefore the people wander like sheep,
They are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.
