¹⁰ They have ^(A)turned back to the iniquities of their ^[a]ancestors who ^(B)refused to hear My words, and they ^(C)have walked after other gods to serve them; the house of Israel and the house of Judah have ^(D)broken My covenant which I cut with their fathers.”

¹⁰ This evil people, who ^(A)refuse to listen to My words, who ^(B)walk in the stubbornness of their hearts and have walked after other gods to serve them and to worship them, let them be just like this belt which is totally worthless.

¹⁹ And this is the judgment, that ^(A)the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for ^(B)their deeds were evil. ^20 (C)For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light lest his deeds be exposed.
