² O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.

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

⁶ Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

³ But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

²⁵ Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

²¹ And turn ye not aside: for then should ye go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.

¹⁷ But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.

⁴ None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.

⁵ Thus saith the LORD, What iniquity 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 their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.

³ And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.

⁸ They that observe 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 afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

³ This is an evil among all things that are 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 the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have showed among them?

¹ Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

⁶ Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.

⁶ I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.

⁴ My soul is among lions: and I lie even 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 speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?

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

¹¹ But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

² He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.

²⁰ Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

²² How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?

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