5:18 The pegpatuman of correct judging
18 You who desire the day of Yahweh won’t end well.
Why do you long for the day of Yahweh?
It’ll be darkness and not light,
19 like when a person flees from a lion and then they run into a bear,
≈or when a person goes in a house and puts a hand on the wall and gets bitten by a snake.
20 Won’t Yahweh’s day consist of darkness and not light?
≈Gloom and no brightness?
21 “I hate, I despise your festivals,
≈I take no delight in your formal gatherings.[ref]
22 Even though you all offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I won’t accept them,
≈nor will I take any notice of your fellowship offerings of fattened animals.
23 Take the noise of your songs away from me.
≈I won’t listen to the sound of your harps.
24 Instead, let justice flow like water,
≈and righteousness like a constantly flowing stream.
did you bring me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness for forty years?[ref]
26 You’ve all lifted up the images of Sikkut, your king,
and Kiyyun, your star god that you made for yourselves. 27 Therefore I will exile you far beyond Damascus,”
