6 if you do not oppress the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place, aor walk after other gods to your hurt,
7 athen I will cause you to dwell in this place, in bthe land that I gave to your fathers forever and ever.
8 “Behold, you trust in alying words that cannot profit.
9 aWill you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and bwalk after other gods whom you do not know,
10 aand then come and stand before Me in this house bwhich is called by My name, and say, ‘We are delivered to do all these abominations’?
