² O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? `How long' will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah

⁷ As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me: I will change their glory into shame.

⁶ Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.

³ But thou, O Jehovah, art a shield about me; My glory and the lifter up of my head.

²⁵ Wherefore, putting away falsehood, speak ye truth each one with his neighbor: for we are members one of another.

²¹ and turn ye not aside; for `then would ye go' after vain things which cannot profit nor deliver, for they are vain.

¹⁷ `But' Israel shall be saved by Jehovah with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be put to shame nor confounded world without end.

⁴ None sueth in righteousness, and none pleadeth in truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.

⁵ thus saith Jehovah, What unrighteousness have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?

¹¹ Hath a nation changed `its' gods, which yet are no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.

³ And they bend their tongue, `as it were' their bow, for falsehood; and they are grown strong in the land, but not for truth: for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith Jehovah.

⁸ They that regard lying vanities Forsake their own mercy.

³¹ that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

⁵ And they shall be dismayed and confounded, because of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

³ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea also, the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that `they go' to the dead.

¹¹ Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

¹¹ And Jehovah said unto Moses, How long will this people despise me? and how long will they not believe in me, for all the signs which I have wrought among them?

¹ Why do the nations rage, And the peoples meditate a vain thing?

⁶ Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor, Because Jehovah is his refuge.

⁶ I hate them that regard lying vanities; But I trust in Jehovah.

⁴ My soul is among lions; I lie among them that are set on fire, Even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, And their tongue a sharp sword.

¹ Do ye indeed in silence speak righteousness? Do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?

³ The wicked are estranged from the womb: They go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.

¹¹ But the king shall rejoice in God: Every one that sweareth by him shall glory; For the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped. Psalm 64 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

² He will judge thy people with righteousness, And thy poor with justice.

²⁰ Thus they changed their glory For the likeness of an ox that eateth grass.

²² How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? And scoffers delight them in scoffing, And fools hate knowledge?

³ And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
