“if you wanted to return to me, you could.You could throw away your detestable idolsand stray away no more.2Then when you swear by my name, saying,‘As surely as the Lord lives,’you could do sowith truth, justice, and righteousness.Then you would be a blessing to the nations of the world,and all people would come and praise my name.”

Lord God my Father,

I detest my own stupidity, I am wise only with you. Remove the deceit that afflicts me and deliver me to your peace and truth.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
