18 If thou sawest a thief, thou rannest with him; and thou settedest thy part with adulterers.

22 Ye that forget God, understand these things; lest sometime he ravish, and none be that shall deliver. (Ye who forget God, understand these things; lest sometime I tear thee in pieces, and there be no one who shall save thee.)
22 “Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with no one to rescue you:
23 The sacrifice of praising shall honour me; and there is the way, wherein I shall show to him the health of God. (The sacrifice of praise shall honour me; and to those who follow my way/and to those who obey me, I shall give them the salvation of God.)
23 Those who sacrifice thank offerings honor me, and to the blameless I will show my salvation.”
