16  When ye have ^atransgressed the covenant of the Lord your God, which he commanded you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them; then shall the anger of the Lord be kindled against you, and ye shall perish quickly from off the good land which he hath given unto you.

  15  For they have ^astrayed from mine ordinances, and have broken mine everlasting covenant;

  2  Behold, I say unto you, were it not for the ^atransgressions of my people, speaking concerning the church and not individuals, they might have been redeemed even now.
