Chapter 16 48 The more will I be angry with them for their sin, saith the Lord.49 Like as a whore envieth a right honest and virtuous woman:50 So shall righteousness hate iniquity, when she decketh herself, and shall accuse her to her face, when he cometh that shall defend him that diligently searcheth out every sin upon earth.51 And therefore be ye not like thereunto, nor to the works thereof.52 For yet a little, and iniquity shall be taken away out of the earth, and righteousness shall reign among you.53 Let not the sinner say that he hath not sinned: for God shall burn coals of fire upon his head, which saith before the Lord God and his glory, I have not sinned.54 Behold, the Lord knoweth all the works of men, their imaginations, their thoughts, and their hearts:55 Which spake but the word, Let the earth be made; and it was made: Let the heaven be made; and it was created.56 In his word were the stars made, and he knoweth the number of them.57 He searcheth the deep, and the treasures thereof; he hath measured the sea, and what it containeth.58 He hath shut the sea in the midst of the waters, and with his word hath he hanged the earth upon the waters.59 He spreadeth out the heavens like a vault; upon the waters hath he founded it.60 In the desert hath he made springs of water, and pools upon the tops of the mountains, that the floods might pour down from the high rocks to water the earth.61 He made man, and put his heart in the midst of the body, and gave him breath, life, and understanding.62 Yea and the Spirit of Almighty God, which made all things, and searcheth out all hidden things in the secrets of the earth,63 Surely he knoweth your inventions, and what ye think in your hearts, even them that sin, and would hide their sin.64 Therefore hath the Lord exactly searched out all your works, and he will put you all to shame.65 And when your sins are brought forth, ye shall be ashamed before men, and your own sins shall be your accusers in that day.66 What will ye do? or how will ye hide your sins before God and his angels?67 Behold, God himself is the judge, fear him: leave off from your sins, and forget your iniquities, to meddle no more with them for ever: so shall God lead you forth, and deliver you from all trouble.68 For, behold, the burning wrath of a great multitude is kindled over you, and they shall take away certain of you, and feed you, being idle, with things offered unto idols.69 And they that consent unto them shall be had in derision and in reproach, and trodden under foot.70 For there shall be in every place, and in the next cities, a great insurrection upon those that fear the Lord.
