So here's what's going to happen, Israel — I'm going to judge each of you based on how you've actually lived your life, says the Lord God. But listen, you can still change direction. Turn away from all the stuff you've been doing wrong, and that mess won't be what destroys you.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

God judges based on your actual choices, but he's still giving you the chance to turn it all around.
