So I have also made a choice. I will make them suffer greatly. I will bring on them what they are afraid of. When I called out to them, no one answered me. When I spoke to them, no one listened. They did what is evil in my sight. They chose to do what displeases me.”

我也必拣选迷惑他们的事，使他们所惧怕的临到他们；因为我呼唤，无人答应；我说话，他们不听从；反倒行我眼中看为恶的，拣选我所不喜悦的。”

我也必选择苦待他们，使他们所惧怕的临到他们；因为我呼唤，无人回应；我说话，他们不听从；反倒做我眼中看为恶的事，选择我所不喜悦的事。”

我也必选择苦待他们，使他们所惧怕的临到他们；因为我呼唤，无人回应；我说话，他们不听从；反倒做我眼中看为恶的事，选择我所不喜悦的事。”

我必重重地惩罚他们，使他们遭遇自己害怕的事。因为我呼唤，无人回应；我讲话，无人聆听。他们做我视为恶的事，专行令我不悦的事。”

所以，我也必选择迷惑他们的事，使他们所惧怕的临到他们身上；因为我呼唤你们，却没有人回答；我说话，你们都不听，反倒行我眼中看为恶的事，选择我所不喜悦的事。”

因此，我要选择折磨他们的事，使他们所恐惧的临到他们。因为我呼唤，没有人回应；我说话，他们不听从；他们做我眼中看为恶的事，选择我所不喜悦的事。”

我也必揀選迷惑他們的事，使他們所懼怕的臨到他們；因為我呼喚，無人答應；我說話，他們不聽從；反倒行我眼中看為惡的，揀選我所不喜悅的。

所以，我也必選擇迷惑他們的事，使他們所懼怕的臨到他們身上；因為我呼喚你們，卻沒有人回答；我說話，你們都不聽，反倒行我眼中看為惡的事，選擇我所不喜悅的事。”

我呢，我也必選擇愚弄他們的事，叫他們所懼怕的臨到他們；因為我呼喚，沒有人回答；我說話，他們都不聽；我所看為壞的、他們倒去行，我所不喜悅的、他們反而選擇。』

因此，我要選擇折磨他們的事，使他們所恐懼的臨到他們。因為我呼喚，沒有人回應；我說話，他們不聽從；他們做我眼中看為惡的事，選擇我所不喜悅的事。」

我必擇其所受誘惑、以彼所懼加於其身、因我有命彼不應、有言彼不從、行我所惡、擇我所不悅也、○

我有命、彼不應、我有言、彼不從、在我前行惡事、我所不悅者、彼故為之、故我必降災、以彼所懼加其身。

so I also will choose harsh treatment for them and will bring on them what they dread. For when I called, no one answered, when I spoke, no one listened. They did evil in my sight and chose what displeases me.”

I also will choose harsh treatment for them and bring their fears upon them, because when I called, no one answered, when I spoke, they did not listen; but they did what was evil in my eyes and chose that in which I did not delight.”

I will send them great trouble— all the things they feared. For when I called, they did not answer. When I spoke, they did not listen. They deliberately sinned before my very eyes and chose to do what they know I despise.”

So I will choose their punishment, and I will bring on them what they dread because I called and no one answered; I spoke and they did not listen; they did what was evil in my sight and chose what I did not delight in.

So I will choose their punishments And bring on them what they dread. Because I called, but no one answered; I spoke, but they did not listen. Instead, they did evil in My sight And chose that in which I did not delight.”

So will I choose their delusions, And bring their fears on them; Because, when I called, no one answered, When I spoke they did not hear; But they did evil before My eyes, And chose that in which I do not delight.”

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did that which was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not.

So I will choose their punishment, and I will bring on them what they dread because I called and no one answered; I spoke and they didn’t hear; they did what was evil in My sight and chose what I didn’t delight in.

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose[ that] in which I delighted not.

So I will choose severe punishment for them; I will bring on them what they dread, because I called, and no one responded, I spoke and they did not listen. They did evil before me; they chose to do what displeases me.”

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears on them; because when I called, no one answered; when I spoke, they didn’t listen; but they did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”

So I will make it your fate to be killed by swords. All of you will die in the battle. That’s because I called out to you, but you did not answer me. I spoke to you, but you did not listen. You did what is evil in my sight. You chose to do what does not please me.”

He sacrificed his own son in the fire to another god. He practiced all kinds of evil magic. He got messages from those who had died. He talked to the spirits of the dead. He did many things that were evil in the eyes of the Lord. Manasseh made the Lord very angry.

But you refuse to listen when I call out to you. No one pays attention when I reach out my hand.

What sinners are afraid of will catch up with them. But those who do right will get what they want.

I spoke to you again and again,” announces the Lord.“ I warned you while you were doing all these things. But you did not listen. I called out to you. But you did not answer.

Manasseh did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord. He followed the practices of the nations. The Lord hated those practices. He had driven those nations out to make room for the Israelites.

So you will eat the fruit of the way you have lived. You will choke on the fruit of what you have planned.“ The wrong path that childish people take will kill them. Foolish people will be destroyed by being satisfied with the way they live.

Micaiah continued,“ Listen to the Lord’ s message. I saw the Lord sitting on his throne. All the angels of heaven were standing around him. Some were standing at his right side. The others were standing at his left side.The Lord said,‘ Who will get Ahab to attack Ramoth Gilead? I want him to die there.’“ One angel suggested one thing. Another suggested something else.Finally, a spirit came forward and stood in front of the Lord. The spirit said,‘ I’ll get Ahab to do it.’“‘ How?’ the Lord asked.“ The spirit said,‘ I’ll go out and put lies in the mouths of all his prophets.’“‘ You will have success in getting Ahab to attack Ramoth Gilead,’ said the Lord.‘ Go and do it.’“ So the Lord has put lies in the mouths of all your prophets. He has said that great harm will come to you.”

False messiahs and false prophets will appear. They will do great signs and miracles. They will try to fool God’s chosen people if possible.

So I let them go their own stubborn way. I let them follow their own sinful plans.

When I came to save you, why didn’t anyone welcome me? When I called out to you, why didn’t anyone answer me? Wasn’t I powerful enough to set you free? Wasn’t I strong enough to save you? I dry up the sea with a single command. I turn rivers into a desert. Then fish rot because they do not have any water. They die because they are thirsty.

“ Here is what the kingdom of heaven is like. A king prepared a wedding dinner for his son.He sent his slaves to those who had been invited to the dinner. The slaves told them to come. But they refused.“ Then he sent some more slaves. He said,‘ Tell those who were invited that I have prepared my dinner. I have killed my oxen and my fattest cattle. Everything is ready. Come to the wedding dinner.’“ But the people paid no attention. One went away to his field. Another went away to his business.The rest grabbed his slaves. They treated them badly and then killed them.The king became very angry. He sent his army to destroy them. They killed those murderers and burned their city.

So people who are dying will be fooled by this evil. These people are dying because they refuse to love the truth. The truth would save them.So God will fool them completely. Then they will believe the lie.Many will not believe the truth. They will take pleasure in evil. They will be judged.

They are always making me very angry. They do it right in front of me. They offer sacrifices in the gardens of other gods. They burn incense on altars that are made out of bricks.
