22

'Do you not fear Me?' declares the LORD. 'Do you not tremble in My presence? For I have placed the sand as a boundary for the sea, An eternal decree, so it cannot cross over it. Though the waves toss, yet they cannot prevail; Though they roar, yet they cannot cross over it.

23

'But this people has a stubborn and rebellious heart; They have turned aside and departed.

24

'They do not say in their heart, "Let us now fear the LORD our God, Who gives rain in its season, Both the autumn rain and the spring rain, Who keeps for us The appointed weeks of the harvest."

25

'Your iniquities have turned these away, And your sins have withheld good from you.

'For wicked men are found among My people, They watch like fowlers lying in wait; They set a trap, They catch men.

27

'Like a cage full of birds, So their houses are full of deceit; Therefore they have become great and rich.

28
