Kaisipang Hudyo sa Jeremias 8:12: Duties

הֹבִ֕שׁוּ כִּ֥י תוֹעֵבָ֖ה עָשׂ֑וּ גַּם־בּ֣וֹשׁ לֹֽא־יֵבֹ֗שׁוּ וְהִכָּלֵם֙ לֹ֣א יָדָ֔עוּ לָכֵ֞ן יִפְּל֣וּ בַנֹּפְלִ֗ים בְּעֵ֧ת פְּקֻדָּתָ֛ם יִכָּשְׁל֖וּ אָמַ֥ר יְהוָֽה׃ (ס)

Mapapahiya sila dahil gumawa sila ng kasuklam-suklam na bagay; pero hindi sila nahihiya, at hindi nila alam kung paano mapahiya. Kaya mabubuwal sila kasama ng mga nabubuwal; sa panahong pananagutin sila, matitisod sila, sabi ng Walang-Hanggan.

Duties of the Heart

Therefore, how then while [standing] before my Creator could I not feel ashamed? How can I expect to please Him with my conduct when I would not want a weak, created being like myself to conduct himself thus towards me, and which a fellow weak, created, and dependent creature like myself would likewise not be pleased to find in me, as it is written "Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush:[therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their punishment they shall be cast down, says the L-ord]" (Yirmiyahu 8:12)." Then the yetzer will be smitten.
