Israel’s Sins

Yahweh, you have abandoned your people, the descendants of Jacob,
    because they are filled with Eastern influences.
        They are fortunetellers like the Philistines,
            and they make deals with foreigners.
Their land is filled with silver and gold,
    and there is no end to their treasures.
    Their land is filled with horses,
        and there is no end to their chariots.
Their land is filled with idols,
    and they worship what their hands have shaped
        and what their fingers have molded.
