5:24 Justice must flow like torrents of water, righteous actions like a stream that never dries up. 5:25 You did not bring me sacrifices and grain offerings during the forty years you spent in the wilderness, family of Israel. 5:26 You will pick up your images of Sikkuth, your king, and Kiyyun, your star god, which you made for yourselves, 5:27 and I will drive you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the Lord. He is called the God who commands armies!
