Judges 17:13

²For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. ³For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

²They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.

⁹“I myself most certainly thought that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

¹³But he answered, “Every plant which my heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted.

²⁰He feeds on ashes. A deceived heart has turned him aside; and he can’t deliver his soul, nor say, “Isn’t there a lie in my right hand?”

¹²There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.

⁹And they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrine rules made by men.’”

³He who kills an ox is as he who kills a man; he who sacrifices a lamb, as he who breaks a dog’s neck; he who offers an offering, as he who offers pig’s blood; he who burns frankincense, as he who blesses an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations. ⁴I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears on them, because when I called, no one answered; when I spoke, they didn’t listen, but they did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
