7 And it came about because the sons of Israel had sinned+ against Jehovah their God, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharʹaoh the king of Egypt,+ and they began to fear other gods;+

13 “Go, inquire+ of Jehovah in my own behalf and in behalf of the people and in behalf of all Judah concerning the words of this book that has been found; for great is Jehovah’s rage+ that has been set afire against us over the fact that our forefathers+ did not listen to the words of this book by doing according to all that is written concerning us.”+

13 “‘“But they, the house of Israel, rebelled against me in the wilderness.+ In my statutes they did not walk,+ and my judicial decisions they rejected,+ which, should the man keep doing, he will also keep living by them.+ And my sabbaths they profaned very much,+ so that I promised* to pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, in order to exterminate them.+

5 we have sinned+ and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled;+ and there has been a turning aside from your commandments and from your judicial decisions.+
