“ I will hide my face from them,” he said,“ and see what their end will be; for they are a perverse generation, children who are unfaithful.

“ I will turn my face away from them,” he said.“ I will see what will happen to them in the end. They are sinful people. They are unfaithful children.

And he said,‘ I will hide my face from them; I will see what their end will be, For they are a perverse generation, children in whom is no faithfulness.

He said,‘ I will abandon them; then see what becomes of them. For they are a twisted generation, children without integrity.

He said,“ I will hide my face from them; I will see what will become of them, for they are a perverse generation— unfaithful children.

Then He said,‘ I will hide My face from them, I will see what their end will be; For they are a perverse generation, Sons in whom there is no faithfulness.

And He said:‘ I will hide My face from them, I will see what their end will be, For they are a perverse generation, Children in whom is no faith.

And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: For they are a very perverse generation, Children in whom is no faithfulness.

“ To what then should I compare the people of this generation, and what are they like?They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another,‘ We played the flute for you, yet you did not dance; we wailed in mourning, yet you did not weep.’

I spread out my hands all day long to my rebellious people, who lived in a way that is morally unacceptable, and who did what they desired.These people continually and blatantly offend me as they sacrifice in their sacred orchards and burn incense on brick altars.They sit among the tombs and keep watch all night long. They eat pork, and broth from unclean sacrificial meat is in their pans.They say,‘ Keep to yourself! Don’t get near me, for I am holier than you!’ These people are like smoke in my nostrils, like a fire that keeps burning all day long.

At that time my anger will erupt against them and I will abandon them and hide my face from them until they are devoured. Many disasters and distresses will overcome them so that they will say at that time,‘ Have not these disasters overcome us because our God is not among us?’But I will certainly hide myself at that time because of all the wickedness they will have done by turning to other gods.

His people have been unfaithful to him; they have not acted like his children– this is their sin. They are a perverse and deceitful generation.

For I know that after I die you will totally corrupt yourselves and turn away from the path I have commanded you to walk. Disaster will confront you in the days to come because you will act wickedly before the LORD, inciting him to anger because of your actions.”

For these are rebellious people– they are lying children, children unwilling to obey the LORD’s law.

Why do you hide your face and regard me as your enemy?

He answered them,“ You unbelieving generation! How much longer must I be with you? How much longer must I endure you? Bring him to me.”

I will scatter them before their enemies like dust blowing in front of a burning east wind. I will turn my back on them and not look favorably on them when disaster strikes them.”

No one invokes your name, or makes an effort to take hold of you. For you have rejected us and handed us over to our own sins.

Jesus answered,“ You unbelieving and perverse generation! How much longer must I be with you? How much longer must I endure you? Bring him here to me.”

“ To what should I compare this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplaces who call out to one another,‘ We played the flute for you, yet you did not dance; we wailed in mourning, yet you did not weep.’

Early the next morning they marched out to the Desert of Tekoa. When they were ready to march, Jehoshaphat stood up and said:“ Listen to me, you people of Judah and residents of Jerusalem! Trust in the LORD your God and you will be safe! Trust in the message of his prophets and you will win.”

Even if they raise their children, I will take away every last one of them. Woe to them! For I will turn away from them.

Ephraim’s leader is Samaria, and Samaria’s leader is the son of Remaliah. If your faith does not remain firm, then you will not remain secure.”

But if God is quiet, who can condemn him? If he hides his face, then who can see him? Yet he is over the individual and the nation alike,

I tell you, he will give them justice speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”

Now without faith it is impossible to please him, for the one who approaches God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

and that we may be delivered from perverse and evil people. For not all have faith.
