If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against him? And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
Is it I whom they provoke? declares the Lord. Is it not themselves, to their own shame?
but he who fails to find me injures himself; all who hate me love death.”
If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if you scoff, you alone will bear it.
If I sin, what do I do to you, you watcher of mankind? Why have you made me your mark? Why have I become a burden to you?
