15. Call to me in times of trouble.I will save you, and you will honor me.”
16. But God says to the wicked people,“Why do you talk about my laws?Why do you mention my agreement?
17. You hate my teachings.You turn your back on what I say.
18. When you see a thief, you join him.You take part in adultery.
19. You don’t stop your mouth from speaking evil.Your tongue makes up lies.
20. You speak against your brother.You lie about your mother’s son.
21. I have kept quiet while you did these things.So you thought I was just like you.But I will scold you.I will accuse you to your face.
