11 Pass ye away [05674], thou inhabitant [03427] of Saphir [08208], having thy shame [01322] naked [06181]: the inhabitant [03427] of Zaanan [06630] came not forth [03318] in the mourning [04553] of Bethezel [01018]; he shall receive [03947] of you his standing [05979].

13 Who leave [05800] the paths [0734] of uprightness [03476], to walk [03212] in the ways [01870] of darkness [02822];
10 Correction [04148] is grievous [07451] unto him that forsaketh [05800] the way [0734]: and he that hateth [08130] reproof [08433] shall die [04191].

21 He that followeth [07291] after righteousness [06666] and mercy [02617] findeth [04672] life [02416], righteousness [06666], and honour [03519].

3 If his offering [07133] be a burnt sacrifice [05930] of the herd [01241], let him offer [07126] a male [02145] without blemish [08549]: he shall offer [07126] it of his own voluntary will [07522] at the door [06607] of the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150] before [06440] the LORD [03068].
14 I have peace [08002] offerings [02077] with me; this day [03117] have I payed [07999] my vows [05088].

14 Which my lips [08193] have uttered [06475], and my mouth [06310] hath spoken [01696], when I was in trouble [06862].
15 I will offer [05927] unto thee burnt sacrifices [05930] of fatlings [04220], with the incense [07004] of rams [0352]; I will offer [06213] bullocks [01241] with goats [06260]. Selah [05542].
22 And Samuel [08050] said [0559], Hath the LORD [03068] as great delight [02656] in burnt offerings [05930] and sacrifices [02077], as in obeying [08085] the voice [06963] of the LORD [03068]? Behold, to obey [08085] is better [02896] than sacrifice [02077], and to hearken [07181] than the fat [02459] of rams [0352].
18 Do good [03190] in thy good pleasure [07522] unto Zion [06726]: build [01129] thou the walls [02346] of Jerusalem [03389].
27 The sacrifice [02077] of the wicked [07563] is abomination [08441]: how much more, when he bringeth [0935] it with a wicked mind [02154]?
6 And now shall mine head [07218] be lifted up [07311] above mine enemies [0341] round about [05439] me: therefore will I offer [02076] in his tabernacle [0168] sacrifices [02077] of joy [08643]; I will sing [07891], yea, I will sing praises [02167] unto the LORD [03068].
6 There be many [07227] that say [0559], Who will shew [07200] us any good [02896]? LORD [03068], lift thou up [05375] the light [0216] of thy countenance [06440] upon us.
9 He that turneth away [05493] his ear [0241] from hearing [08085] the law [08451], even his prayer [08605] shall be abomination [08441].
8 The sacrifice [02077] of the wicked [07563] is an abomination [08441] to the LORD [03068]: but the prayer [08605] of the upright [03477] is his delight [07522].
19 As righteousness [06666] tendeth to life [02416]: so he that pursueth [07291] evil [07451] pursueth it to his own death [04194].
6 We have heard [08085] of the pride [01347] of Moab [04124]; he is very [03966] proud [01341]: even of his haughtiness [01346], and his pride [01347], and his wrath [05678]: but his lies [0907] shall not be so.
28 Mercy [02617] and truth [0571] preserve [05341] the king [04428]: and his throne [03678] is upholden [05582] by mercy [02617].
7 The lips [08193] of the wise [02450] disperse [02219] knowledge [01847]: but the heart [03820] of the foolish [03684] doeth not so.
