“ Listen, my people, and I will speak; I will testify against you, Israel: I am God, your God.

God says,“ Listen, my people, and I will speak. I will be a witness against you, Israel. I am God, your God.

“ Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God.

“ O my people, listen as I speak. Here are my charges against you, O Israel: I am God, your God!

“ Listen, my people, and I will speak; I will testify against you, Israel. I am God, your God.

“ Hear, My people, and I will speak; Israel, I will testify against you; I am God, your God.

“ Hear, O My people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against you; I am God, your God!

Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify unto thee: I am God, even thy God.

“ Listen, My people, and I will speak; I will testify against you, Israel. I am God, your God.

Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I[ am] God,[ even] thy God.

“ Hear, my people, and I will speak. Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God.

I said,‘ Listen, my people! I will warn you! O Israel, if only you would obey me!

“ I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you from the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery.

Now write down for yourselves the following song and teach it to the Israelites. Put it into their very mouths so that this song may serve as my witness against the Israelites!For after I have brought them to the land I promised to their ancestors– one flowing with milk and honey– and they eat their fill and become fat, then they will turn to other gods and worship them; they will reject me and break my covenant.Then when many disasters and distresses overcome them this song will testify against them, for their descendants will not forget it. I know the intentions they have in mind today, even before I bring them to the land I have promised.”

Come, let’s consider your options,” says the LORD.“ Though your sins have stained you like the color red, you can become white like snow; though they are as easy to see as the color scarlet, you can become white like wool.

The LORD will not abandon his people because he wants to uphold his great reputation. The LORD was pleased to make you his own people.As far as I am concerned, far be it from me to sin against the LORD by ceasing to pray for you! I will instruct you in the way that is good and upright.However, fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart. Just look at the great things he has done for you!But if you continue to do evil, both you and your king will be swept away.”

Now listen to what the Lord has to say, you descendants of Jacob, all you family groups from the nation of Israel.This is what the Lord says:“ What fault could your ancestors have possibly found in me that they strayed so far from me? They paid allegiance to worthless idols, and so became worthless to me.

I am the LORD your God; follow my statutes, observe my regulations, and carry them out.Treat my Sabbaths as holy and they will be a reminder of our relationship, and then you will know that I am the LORD your God.”

Listen to this, all you nations! Pay attention, all you inhabitants of the world!

I am the LORD, your God, the one who brought you out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide and I will fill it!’But my people did not obey me; Israel did not submit to me.I gave them over to their stubborn desires; they did what seemed right to them.

The LORD his God handed him over to the king of Syria. The Syrians defeated him and deported many captives to Damascus. He was also handed over to the king of Israel, who thoroughly defeated him.

Listen to what the LORD says:“ Get up! Defend yourself before the mountains! Present your case before the hills!”Hear the LORD’s accusation, you mountains, you enduring foundations of the earth! For the LORD has a case against his people; he has a dispute with Israel!“ My people, how have I wronged you? How have I wearied you? Answer me!In fact, I brought you up from the land of Egypt, I delivered you from that place of slavery. I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam to lead you.My people, recall how King Balak of Moab planned to harm you, how Balaam son of Beor responded to him. Recall how you journeyed from Shittim to Gilgal, so you might acknowledge that the LORD has treated you fairly.”With what should I enter the LORD’s presence? With what should I bow before the sovereign God? Should I enter his presence with burnt offerings, with year-old calves?Will the LORD accept a thousand rams, or ten thousand streams of olive oil? Should I give him my firstborn child as payment for my rebellion, my offspring– my own flesh and blood– for my sin?He has told you, O man, what is good, and what the LORD really wants from you: He wants you to promote justice, to be faithful, and to live obediently before your God.

And now, if you will diligently listen to me and keep my covenant, then you will be my special possession out of all the nations, for all the earth is mine,and you will be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you will speak to the Israelites.”

and say to them:“‘ This is what the sovereign LORD says: On the day I chose Israel I swore to the descendants of the house of Jacob and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt. I swore to them,“ I am the LORD your God.”

And you solemnly admonished them in order to return them to your law, but they behaved presumptuously and did not obey your commandments. They sinned against your ordinances– those by which an individual, if he obeys them, will live. They boldly turned from you; they rebelled and did not obey.You prolonged your kindness with them for many years, and you solemnly admonished them by your Spirit through your prophets. Still they paid no attention, so you delivered them into the hands of the neighboring peoples.

The LORD solemnly warned Israel and Judah through all his prophets and all the seers,“ Turn back from your evil ways; obey my commandments and rules that are recorded in the law. I ordered your ancestors to keep this law and sent my servants the prophets to remind you of its demands.”

“ So, once more I will state my case against you,” says the LORD.“ I will also state it against your children and grandchildren.

“ I will come to you in judgment. I will be quick to testify against those who practice divination, those who commit adultery, those who break promises, and those who exploit workers, widows, and orphans, who refuse to help the immigrant and in this way show they do not fear me,” says the LORD who rules over all.

Then I will bring the remaining third into the fire; I will refine them like silver is refined and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name and I will answer; I will say,‘ These are my people,’ and they will say,‘ The LORD is my God.’”

Today you have declared the LORD to be your God, and that you will walk in his ways, keep his statutes, commandments, and ordinances, and obey him.And today the LORD has declared you to be his special people( as he already promised you) so you may keep all his commandments.

I said to them,“ Each of you must get rid of the detestable idols you keep before you, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am the LORD your God.”
