unto the children of Israel for ever.

themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger.

deceive;

ing every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect

Pss.50[ 16] But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?[17 ] Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee.[18] When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.[ 19] Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.[20 ] Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.[21] These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.[22] Now consider this, ye that forget God , lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.[ 23] Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God.
Pss.78[ 7] That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments:

[93] I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.
[109] My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.
[141] I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.
[153] Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.
[176] I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.
That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments:

Prov.4[ 5] Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
Isa.51[ 12] I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass;[13 ] And forget test the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?

23] Am I a God at hand, saith
the LORD, and not a God afar off?

secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven
and earth? saith the LORD.
[25] I have heard what the prophets
said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
[26] How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets
that prophesy lies? yea, they
are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;[27] Which think to cause my
people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour,
as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
[29] Is not my word like as
a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
[30] Therefore, behold, I am
against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my
words every one from his neighbour.
[31] Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues,
and say, He saith.
[32]
Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams
, saith the LORD, and do tell
them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet
I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they
shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.
[33] And when this people, or
the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of the
LORD? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you,
saith the LORD.
[34] And as for the prophet,
and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will
even punish that man and his house.
[35] Thus shall ye say every
one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the LORD answered?
and, What hath the LORD spoken?
[36] And the burden of the LORD
shall ye mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for ye
have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.
[37] Thus shalt thou say to
the prophet, What hath the LORD answered thee? and, What hath the LORD spoken?
[38] But since ye say, The burden
of the LORD; therefore thus saith the LORD; Because ye say this word, The burden
of the LORD, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden
of the LORD;
[39] Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget
you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers,
and cast you out of my presence:
[40] And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame,
which shall not be forgotten.

Jas.1[ 24] For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forget teth what manner of man he was. [ 25] But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed .
