I have worked and spoken in this way among you, I have expended so much energy and heart's blood, yet when have you ever listened to what I plainly tell you? Where have you lain prostrate before the Almighty? Why do you treat Me like this? Why does everything you say and do strike at My anger? Do you not know that you have long since been seen by My eyes when you stole My sacrifices and coveted My possessions? Do you not know that when you stole My sacrifices, you did so before the altar to which sacrifices are offered? How could you believe yourselves to be so clever and deceive Me in this way? How could My anger depart from your heinous sins? How could My raging fury pass over your evil deeds? The evil deeds that you commit today do not open a way out for you, but store up chastisement for your tomorrow; they strike at the chastisement of the Almighty, toward you.

In the eyes of the Almighty, your words and actions are seen as filthy. In the eyes of the Almighty, your unrighteousness is seen as unending chastisement. How could My righteous chastisement and judgment depart from you? Because you treat Me like this, making Me sorrowful and angry, how could I let you escape from My hands and depart from the day that I chastise and curse you? Do you not know that all your evil words and utterances have long since reached My ears? Do you not know that your rebelliousness has long since provoked My copious anger? Do you not know that you have long since left Me seething, that I have long endured you? How could you remain so intransigent today, such that it is as if calluses have grown upon your hearts? How could the evil deeds that you commit today escape the day of anger that shall follow My departure from earth?
