24 Oh, nay my sonnes: For it is no good report that I heare, how that ye make the Lordes people to trespasse.

25 If one man sinne against another, the Iudge shall iudge it: But if a man sinne against the Lord, who will be his dayseman? Notwithstandiug, they hearkened not vnto the voyce of their father, because the Lorde would slay the.
