Ezekiel 24:6
24:6 “‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says:
Woe to the city of bloodshed,
the pot whose rot is in it,
whose rot has not been removed from it!
Empty it piece by piece.
No lot has fallen on it.
Ezekiel 24:13
24:13 You mix uncleanness with obscene conduct.
I tried to cleanse you, but you are not clean.
You will not be cleansed from your uncleanness
until I have exhausted my anger on you.
Genesis 6:5-7
6:5 But the Lord saw that the wickedness of humankind had become great on the earth. Every inclination of the thoughts of their minds was only evil all the time.
6:6 The Lord regretted that he had made humankind on the earth, and he was highly offended.
6:7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe humankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth – everything from humankind to animals, including creatures that move on the ground and birds of the air, for I regret that I have made them.”
Genesis 8:21
8:21 And the
Lord smelled the soothing aroma
and said
to himself,
“I will never again curse
the ground because of humankind, even though
the inclination of their minds
is evil from childhood on.
I will never again destroy everything that lives, as I have just done.
Isaiah 1:5
1:5 Why do you insist on being battered?
Why do you continue to rebel?
Your head has a massive wound,
your whole body is weak.
Jeremiah 5:3
5:3 Lord, I know you look for faithfulness.
But even when you punish these people, they feel no remorse.
Even when you nearly destroy them, they refuse to be corrected.
They have become as hardheaded as a rock.
They refuse to change their ways.
Jeremiah 44:16-17
44:16 “We will not listen to what you claim the
Lord has spoken to us!
44:17 Instead we will do everything we vowed we would do.
We will sacrifice and pour out drink offerings to the goddess called the Queen of Heaven
just as we and our ancestors, our kings, and our leaders previously did in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. For then we had plenty of food, were well-off, and had no troubles.
Daniel 9:13-14
9:13 Just as it is written in the law of Moses, so all this calamity has come on us. Still we have not tried to pacify
the
LORD our God by turning back from our sin and by seeking wisdom
from your reliable moral standards.
9:14 The
LORD was mindful of the calamity, and he brought it on us. For the
LORD our God is just
in all he has done,
and we have not obeyed him.
