But the
word of the
LORD was unto them
precept upon
precept, precept upon

little, and there a
little; that they might
go, and
fall backward, and be
broken, and
snared, and
taken.

Because ye have
said, We have
made a
covenant with
death, and with
hell are
we at
agreement; when the

through, it shall not
come unto us: for we have
made lies our
refuge, and under
falsehood have we
hid ourselves:

Judgment also will I
