¹⁶ There are six things which Jehovah hateth; Yea, seven which are an abomination unto him:

²¹ For three things the earth doth tremble, And for four, `which' it cannot bear:

¹⁰ There shall not be found with thee any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one that useth divination, one that practiseth augury, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,

¹¹ or a charmer, or a consulter with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer.

¹² For whosoever doeth these things is an abomination unto Jehovah: and because of these abominations Jehovah thy God doth drive them out from before thee.

¹⁶ For all that do such things, `even' all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto Jehovah thy God.

⁵ Jehovah trieth the righteous; But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

³² For the perverse is an abomination to Jehovah; But his friendship is with the upright.

¹³ The fear of Jehovah is to hate evil: Pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, And the perverse mouth, do I hate.

¹ A false balance is an abomination to Jehovah; But a just weight is his delight.

²⁰ They that are perverse in heart are an abomination to Jehovah; But such as are perfect in `their' way are his delight.

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah; But the prayer of the upright is his delight.

⁹ The way of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah; But he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.

¹⁵ He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to Jehovah.

¹⁸ There are three things which are too wonderful for me, Yea, four which I know not:

²⁷ and there shall in no wise enter into it anything unclean, or he that maketh an abomination and a lie: but only they that are written in the Lamb's book of life.

⁶ Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Israel, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes-

⁴ Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Judah, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have rejected the law of Jehovah, and have not kept his statutes, and their lies have caused them to err, after which their fathers did walk:

¹⁰ Diverse weights, and diverse measures, Both of them alike are an abomination to Jehovah.

²³ Diverse weights are an abomination to Jehovah; And a false balance is not good.

²⁴ There are four things which are little upon the earth, But they are exceeding wise:

²⁹ There are three things which are stately in their march, Yea, four which are stately in going:

³ Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Damascus, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:

⁶ Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Gaza, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole people, to deliver them up to Edom:

⁹ Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Tyre, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the whole people to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:

¹¹ Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Edom, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he did pursue his brother with the sword, and did cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and he kept his wrath for ever:

¹ Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Moab, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:

⁴ her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before Jehovah: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

¹⁸ Thou shalt not bring the hire of a harlot, or the wages of a dog, into the house of Jehovah thy God for any vow: for even both these are an abomination unto Jehovah thy God.
