Then they believed His words, and celebrated His praise.

They made haste, they forgot His works; they waited not for His counsel.

And the Lord heard the voice of your words as you spoke to me; and the Lord said to me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, even all things that they have said to you. [They have] well [said] all that they have spoken.

O that there were such a heart in them, that they should fear Me, and keep My commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their sons forever!

And the Lord has said, This people draw near to Me with their mouth, and they honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me; and in vain do they worship Me, teaching the commandments and doctrines of men.

They approach you as a people that come together, and sit before you, and hear your words, but they will not do them; for [there is] falsehood in their mouth, and their heart [goes] after their pollutions.

Ephraim has compassed Me with falsehood, and the house of Israel and Judah with ungodliness; [but] now God knows them, and they shall be called God's holy people.

at the hearing of the ear they obeyed me: the strange children lied to me.
