1-3. God says:“Can you produce your mother’s divorce papersproving I got rid of her?Can you produce a receiptproving I sold you?Of course you can’t.It’s your sins that put you here,your wrongs that got you shipped out.So why didn’t anyone come when I knocked?Why didn’t anyone answer when I called?Do you think I’ve forgotten how to help?Am I so decrepit that I can’t deliver?I’m as powerful as ever,and can reverse what I once did:I can dry up the sea with a word,turn river water into desert sand,And leave the fish stinking in the sun,stranded on dry land . . .Turn all the lights out in the skyand pull down the curtain.”
10-11. Who out there fears God,actually listens to the voice of his servant?For anyone out there who doesn’t know where you’re going,anyone groping in the dark,Here’s what: Trust in God.Lean on your God!But if all you’re after is making trouble,playing with fire,Go ahead and see where it gets you.Set your fires, stir people up, blow on the flames,But don’t expect me to just stand there and watch.I’ll hold your feet to those flames.
