5 For if you truly make your ways and your deeds good, if you truly do justice between a man and his neighbor,
6 you do not oppress the alien, the orphan, and the widow, you do not shed innocent blood in this place, and you do not go after other gods to your harm,
7 then I will let you dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your ancestors forever and ever.
8 Look, you are relying for yourselves on deceitful words without benefiting.
9 Will you steal? Will you murder? And will you commit adultery? And will you swear falsely? And will you make a smoke offering to the Baal? And will you go after other gods whom you have not known?
10 And then you come and you stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and you say, ‘we are safe to go on doing all of these detestable things.’
11 Has this house, which is called by my name, become a cave of robbers in your eyes? Look, I, even I, have seen it,” declares Yahweh.
