This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God.

Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and a horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.

And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall fade, and the fatness of his flesh shall grow lean.

And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed themselves out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.

They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations they provoked him to anger.

Of the Rock that begat you you are unmindful, and have forgotten God that formed you.

The wicked shall be turned into sheol, and all the nations that forget God.

They forgot God their savior, who had done great things in Egypt;

Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red sea.

Trust you not in lying words, saying, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, are these.

If you oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt:

Behold, you trust in lying words, that cannot profit.

Every man is senseless in his knowledge: every goldsmith is put to shame by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,

Who did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.

Because you have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with sheol are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:

Her heads judge for reward, and her priests teach for hire, and her prophets divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? no evil can come upon us.

What profits the graven image that its maker has shaped it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusts in it, to make dumb idols?

Woe unto him that says to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in it.
