for their wickedness is come up before me.

Thou shalt not lie with mankind,
as with womankind: it is abomination.

neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment:
for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.

God says that the Sodomites were

¹⁰ The Lord spake again unto Ahaz, saying, ¹¹ Ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. ¹² But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the Lord. ¹³ And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also? ¹⁴ Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. ¹⁵ Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good. ¹⁶ For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.
–Isaiah 7:10-16 (KJV)–

O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear

O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan’s tyranny
From depths of Hell Thy people save
And give them victory o’er the grave

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel

Our God is with us, He’s with us now
O come, O come, Emmanuel

O come, Thou Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thinе advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death’s dark shadows put to flight

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel 
Aaahhhh!

Oh, our God is with us, He’s with us now
Oh, our God is Emmanuel

O come, O come, Emmanuel
He’s with us now

–Skillet, “O Come, O Come Emmanuel”–

¹⁹ Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, ²⁰ idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, ²¹ envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
–Galatians 5:19-21 (KJV)–

Sing unto him A NEW SONG;
PLAY SKILFULLY WITH A LOUD NOISE.
–Psalm 33:3 (KJV)–

The four beasts and four and twenty elders
fell down before the Lamb,
HAVING EVERY ONE OF THEM HARPS,
and golden vials full of odours,
which are the prayers of saints.
–Revelation 5:8 (KJV)–
