19 You talked only about violenceand told nothing but lies;
20 you sat around gossiping,ruining the reputationof your own relatives.”
21 When you did all this,I didn't say a word,and you thought,“God is just like us!”But now I will accuse you.
22 You have ignored me!So pay close attentionor I will tear you apart,and no one can help you.
23 The sacrifice that honors meis a thankful heart.Obey me, and I, your God,will show my power to save.
