[Taken from the New Living Translation]
The priests did not ask,
‘Where is the Lord?’
Those who taught my word ignored me,
the rulers turned against me,
and the prophets spoke in the name of Baal,
wasting their time on worthless idols.
Therefore, I will bring my case against you,”
says the Lord.
How dark the gold
has become,
How the pure gold has changed!
The sacred stones are poured out
At the cor
ner of every street.
2 The precious sons of Zion,
Weighed against fine gold,
now- how- they are regarded
as earthen jars,
The work of a potter's hands!
3 Even jackals offer the breast, They
nurse their
young;
But the daughter of my people
has become cruel Like ostriches
in the
wilderness.
4 The tongue of the infant cleaves
To the roof of its mouth be
cause
of thirst;
The little ones ask for bread,
But no one breaks it for them.
But no one breaks it for them.

It is about putting biblical passages to music. For me, that makes them easier to memorize. That is the entire agenda. And I put them here because it makes them easier for me to organize and access.
Secondarily, sometimes I put a little more effort into musical production for a given passage, to try to make it a little more musically palatable to the ears of some others who might be interested. But those better "musical productions," such as they are, will generally not be found here in this "album."
