¹²⁶ It is time for thee, Lord, to work: for they have made void thy law.

⁸ How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.

⁶ And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

⁸ But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the Lord of hosts.

⁴ Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.

¹⁴ For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

³¹ Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

¹⁹ Arise, O Lord; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.

¹⁴ I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.

¹³ Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
