*
Do not trust in these deceptive words : `
This is the temple of the LORD ,
the temple of the LORD ,
the temple of the LORD .'
* "
For if you truly amend your ways and your doings ,
if you truly execute justice one with another ,
*
if you do not oppress the alien ,
the fatherless or the widow ,
or shed innocent blood in this place ,
and if you do not go after other gods to your own hurt ,
*
then I will let you dwell in this place ,
in the land that I gave of old to your fathers for ever .
* "
Behold ,
you trust in deceptive words to no avail .
