People weary God when they call evil good and justify their sin, as Malachi 2:17 shows: "You have wearied the LORD with your words," by claiming that everyone who does evil is good in His sight and that He delights in them. God does not grow tired physically, as humans do. Rather, He is annoyed by human reasoning and self-justification of sin, and He does not accept complaints that living His way is useless, since His way is the only path to long life and happiness. This echoes Isaiah 5:20's woe on those who call evil good and good evil. Many people deny that sin has consequences, and even when disease follows an immoral lifestyle, they refuse to admit it and blame others instead. Because God is longsuffering and delays the penalty, hearts become set on doing evil (Ecclesiastes 8:11-12). The root cause of society's immorality is that few people truly fear and revere God. Blaming leaders or other groups does not remove personal responsibility, for each individual chooses his own conduct and whether to fear God, and it will be well with those who fear Him.
