You have wearied the LORD with your words; yet you ask, “How have we wearied Him?” By saying, “All who do evil are good in the sight of the LORD, and in them He delights,” or, “Where is the God of justice?”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
You have wearied Yahweh with your words. Yet you say, ‘How have we wearied him?’ In that you say, ‘Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of Yahweh, and he delights in them;’ or ‘Where is the God of justice?’

Ye have wearied{H3021}{(H8689)} the LORD{H3068} with your words{H1697}. Yet ye say{H559}{(H8804)}, Wherein have we wearied{H3021}{(H8689)} him? When ye say{H559}{(H8800)}, Every one that doeth{H6213}{(H8802)} evil{H7451} is good{H2896} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, and he delighteth{H2654}{(H8804)} in them; or, Where is the God{H430} of judgment{H4941}?
