AND THOU SHALT SAY  UNTO THEM, THUS SAITH THE LORD; IF YE WILL NOT HEARKEN TO ME, TO WALK IN MY LAW, WHICH I HAVE SET BEFORE YOU, TO HEARKEN TO THE WORDS OF MY SERVANTS THE PROPHETS, WHOM I SENT UNTO YOU, BOTH RISING UP EARLY, AND SENDING THEM, BUT YE HAVE NOT HEARKENED; THEN WILL I MAKE THIS HOUSE LIKE SHILOH, AND WILL MAKE THIS CITY A CURSE TO ALL THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH.

  MICAH 2:1-6 WOE TO THEM THAT DEVISE INIQUITY, AND WORK EVIL UPON THEIR BEDS!  WHEN THE MORNING  IS LIGHT,  THEY PRACTISE IT,  BECAUSE  IT IS IN  THE POWER OF THEIR HAND.

ISAIAH 40:6-8   THE VOICE  SAID,  CRY.  AND HE SAID,  WHAT SHALL  I CRY?  ALL FLESH  IS GRASS,  AND  ALL THE GOODLINESS THEREOF IS  AS THE FLOWER  OF THE FIELD:  THE GRASS WITHERETH ,  THE FLOWER FADETH :  BECAUSE  THE SPIRIT  OF THE LORD BLOWETH  UPON IT:  SURELY  THE PEOPLE  IS GRASS.
