my sister

You use your mouth to speak evil.
You use your tongue to spread lies.
20 You always speak against your brother.
You always tell lies about your own mother’s son.
21 You have done those things, and I kept silent.
So you thought I was just like you.
But now I’m going to correct you.
I will bring charges against you.
22 “You who forget God, think about this.
If you don’t, I will tear you to pieces.
No one will be able to save you.
23 Anyone who sacrifices thank offerings to me honors me.
He makes it possible for me to show him
that I am the God who saves.”
