But the more I called to him, the farther he moved from me, offering sacrifices to the images of Baal and burning incense to idols.

因為他們在山上燒香，在岡陵上辱罵我，所以我必稱量他們先前的行為，報應在他們懷中。」

因為他們是悖逆的子民，欺詐的兒女，是不肯聽從耶和華訓誨的兒女。他們對先見說：「不要看異象了！」對先知說：「不要向我們預言真確的事，要向我們說柔滑的話，預言虛幻的事！你們要離開這道，轉離這路，不要在我們面前再提以色列的聖者了！」

耶和華對撒母耳說：「你就聽從民眾對你說的一切話。其實他們不是厭棄你，而是厭棄我作他們的王。自從我帶他們出埃及的那天起直到今日，他們離棄我，服事別的神明——他們怎樣對我做這一切，現在也怎樣對你做。所以你要聽從民眾的話，但一定要嚴厲地告誡他們，告訴他們那將要統治他們的王，會用什麼方法統治他們。」

「耶路撒冷啊，耶路撒冷！這城殺害先知們，又用石頭砸死被差到她這裡的人！我多次想聚集你的兒女，像母雞把自己的小雞聚集在翅膀下，可是你們不願意！

「所定的罪是這樣的：光來到了世界，人們卻因自己的行為邪惡，不喜愛光，反喜愛黑暗。

耶和華宣告：『你們不要像你們的祖先！先前的眾先知呼喚他們，說：「萬軍之耶和華如此說：現在你們要回轉離開自己邪惡的道路和邪惡的行為！」他們卻不聽從，也不留心聽我的話。

因為在神面前，無論在得救的人中間，還是在滅亡的人中間，我們都是基督的馨香：對滅亡的人，我們是死亡的香氣以至於死亡；對得救的人，我們是生命的香氣以至於生命。對這些事，到底誰配得上呢？
