וַתְּהִ֤י הָֽאֱמֶת֙ נֶעְדֶּ֔רֶת וְסָ֥ר מֵרָ֖ע מִשְׁתּוֹלֵ֑ל וַיַּ֧רְא יְהוָ֛ה וַיֵּ֥רַע בְּעֵינָ֖יו כִּֽי־אֵ֥ין מִשְׁפָּֽט׃
At ang katotohanan ay nawala, at ang lumalayo sa kasamaan ay itinuturing na hangal; at nakita ito ng Walang-Hanggan, at masama ito sa Kanyang paningin na walang katarungan.
Ma'amar Tzipita LeYeshuah

Moreover, nowadays, service of HaShem is pure and free of any ulterior motives, such as seeking honor etc., being that, on the contrary, because of our many sins,12Isaiah 59:15 whoever desists from evil is considered to be depraved by many people, and whoever fears HaShem is despised.
