Yahweh Refines Stubborn Israel

Chapter 48Visible text2 paragraphs
Hear this, house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel and came out from the waters of Judah, who swear by the name of Yahweh, and {invoke}[note: Literally "cause to remember"] the God of Israel, [but] not in truth and not in righteousness.
For they call themselves {after the holy city},[note: Literally "from the city of the holiness"] and they lean on the God of Israel-- Yahweh of hosts [is] his name.
