Lord heard you speaking to me, he

all my commandments in the future, so that it may go well with them and their descendants forever.
Isaiah 29:13

and they sit in front of you as

and their heart is set on
their own advantage.
Hosea 11:12
God’s Lawsuit against Israel: Breach of Covenant
11:12 (12:1) Ephraim has surrounded me with lies;
the house of Israel has surrounded me with deceit.
But Judah still roams about with God;
he remains faithful to the Holy One.
