Therefore they say H559 to God, H410 Depart H5493 from us; for we desire H2654 not the knowledge H1847 of your ways. H1870

What H4100 is the Almighty, H7706 that we should serve H5647 him? and what H4100 profit H3276 should we have, if H3588 we pray H6293 to him?

Which said H559 to God, H410 Depart H5493 from us: and what H4100 can the Almighty H7706 do H6466 for them?

For he has said, H559 It profits H5532 a man H1397 nothing H3808 that he should delight H7521 himself with God. H430

For you said, H559 What H4100 advantage H5532 will it be to you? and, What H4100 profit H3276 shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin? H2403

They are corrupt, H4167 and speak H1696 wickedly H7451 concerning oppression: H6233 they speak H1696 loftily. H4791

Therefore H3651 his people H5971 return H7725 here: H1988 and waters H4325 of a full H4392 cup are wrung H4680 out to them.

Behold, H2009 these H428 are the ungodly, H7563 who prosper H7951 in the world; H5769 they increase H7685 in riches. H2428

Why H4100 have we fasted, H6684 say they, and you see H7200 not? why have we afflicted H6031 our soul, H5315 and you take no H3808 knowledge? H3045 Behold, H2005 in the day H3117 of your fast H6685 you find H4672 pleasure, H2656 and exact H5065 all H3605 your labors. H6092

And it shall come H1961 to pass at that time, H6256 that I will search H2664 Jerusalem H3389 with candles, H5216 and punish H6485 the men H582 that are settled H7087 on H5921 their lees: H8105 that say H559 in their heart, H3824 The LORD H3068 will not do good, H3190 neither H3808 will he do evil. H7451

Why H4100 have we fasted, H6684 say they, and you see H7200 not? why have we afflicted H6031 our soul, H5315 and you take no H3808 knowledge? H3045 Behold, H2005 in the day H3117 of your fast H6685 you find H4672 pleasure, H2656 and exact H5065 all H3605 your labors. H6092

Therefore H1571 also H1571 now, H6258 said H5002 the LORD, H3068 turn H7725 you even to me with all H3605 your heart, H3824 and with fasting, H6685 and with weeping, H1065 and with mourning: H4553

And to speak H559 to the priests H3548 which H834 were in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 and to the prophets, H5030 saying, H559 Should I weep H1058 in the fifth H2549 month, H2320 separating H5144 myself, as I have done H6213 these H2088 so many years? H8141

Speak H559 to all H3605 the people H5971 of the land, H776 and to the priests, H3548 saying, H559 When H3588 you fasted H6684 and mourned H5594 in the fifth H2549 and seventh H7637 month, even those H2088 seventy H7657 years, H8141 did you at all fast H6684 to me, even to me?

Be afflicted, G5003 and mourn, G3996 and weep: G2799 let your G5216 laughter G1071 be turned G3344 to mourning, G3997 and your G3588 joy G5479 to heaviness. G2726
