- We offend:
- "Israelª [was] holinessª unto the LORD,ª [and] the firstfruitsª of his increase:ª all¹ that devourª° him shall offend;ª° evilª shall comeª° upon¹ them, saithª° the LORD.ª" {Jer 2:3} + "And the captainª of the guardª tookª° Jeremiah,ª and saidª° unto¹ him, The LORDª thy Godª hath pronouncedª°¹ this¹ evilª upon¹ this¹ place.ª ... Now the LORDª hath broughtª° [it], and doneª° according as¹ he hath said:ª° because¹ ye have sinnedª° against the LORD,ª and have not¹ obeyedª° his voice,ª therefore this¹ thingª is come¹ upon you." {Jer 40:2-3} + "I was wrothª° with¹ my people,ª I have pollutedª° mine inheritance,ª and givenª° them into thine hand:ª thou didst shewª° them no¹ mercy;ª upon¹ the ancientª hast thou veryª heavily²° laid¹ thy yoke.ª" {Isa 47:6} + "Neither¹ have we hearkenedª° unto¹ thy servantsª the prophets,ª which¹ spakeª° in thy nameª to¹ our kings,ª our princes,ª and our fathers,ª and to¹ all¹ the peopleª of the land.ª" {Dan 9:6} + "O Lord,ª according to all¹ thy righteousness,ª I beseech thee,¹ let thine angerª and thy furyª be turned awayª° from thy cityª¹ Jerusalem,ª thy holyª mountain:ª because¹ for our sins,ª and for the iniquitiesª of our fathers,ª Jerusalemª and thy peopleª [are become] a reproachª to all¹ [that are] aboutª us." {Dan 9:16} + "And I¹ am veryª sore² displeasedª°¹ with¹ the heathenª [that are] at ease:ª for¹ I¹ was but a littleª displeased,ª° and they¹ helpedª° forward the affliction.ª" {Zch 1:15} + "Whose¹ possessorsª° slayª° them, and hold themselves not guilty:ª°¹ and they that sellª° them say,ª° Blessedª° [be] the LORD;ª for I am rich:ª° and their own shepherdsª° pityª°¹ them not.¹" {Zch 11:5}
