Yahweh will judge all the nations

66 Yahweh also said this:

“All of heaven is like my throne,

and the whole earth is like my footstool.

So you could certainly not [RHQ] build a house

that would be adequate for me to live in and rest!

2 I [MTY] have created everything;

all things exist because I made them.

That is true because I, Yahweh, have said it.

The people I am most pleased with are those who are humble,

who patiently endure it when they ◄suffer/are afflicted►,

and who tremble when they hear me rebuking them.

3 You have enjoyed continually doing the things that you want to do:

Some of you slaughter oxen to sacrifice them to me,

but you also bring human sacrifices to your idols!

You sacrifice lambs to me,

but you kill dogs to offer them to your gods.

You offer grain to me,

but you also bring pigs’ blood to your idols.

You burn incense to me,

but you also praise your idols.

You enjoy doing those disgusting things.

4 When I called out to you,

you did not answer.

When I spoke, you did not pay attention.

You did many things that I say are evil;

you chose to do things that I did not like.

So now I will punish you by causing you to experience the things that you are very afraid of.”
