\v 1 Hear this word that Yahweh has spoken against you, people of Israel, against the whole family that I brought up out of the land of Egypt:
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 2 "I have chosen only you
|
|
\q from all the families of the earth.
|
|
\q Therefore I will punish you
|
|
\q for all your sins."
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 3 Will two walk together
|
|
\q unless they have agreed?
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 Will a lion roar in the forest
|
|
\q when he has no victim?
|
|
\q Will a young lion growl from his den
|
|
\q if he has caught nothing?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 Can a bird fall in a trap on the ground
|
|
\q when no bait is set for him?
|
|
\q Will a trap spring up from the ground
|
|
\q when it has not caught anything?
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 If a trumpet sounds in a city,
|
|
\q will the people not tremble?
|
|
\q If disaster overtakes a city,
|
|
\q has Yahweh not sent it?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 Surely the Lord Yahweh will do nothing
|
|
\q unless he reveals his plan to his servants the prophets.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 8 The lion has roared;
|
|
\q who will not fear?
|
|
\q The Lord Yahweh has spoken;
|
|
\q who will not prophesy?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 Proclaim this in the fortresses at Ashdod,
|
|
\q and in the fortresses in the land of Egypt;
|
|
\q say, "Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria
|
|
\q and see what great confusion is in her,
|
|
\q and what oppression is in her.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 For they do not know how to do right
|
|
\q —this is Yahweh's declaration—
|
|
\q They store up violence
|
|
\q and destruction in their fortresses."
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 Therefore, this is what the Lord Yahweh says:
|
|
\q "An enemy will surround the land,
|
|
\q and pull down your strongholds
|
|
\q and plunder your fortresses."
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 This is what Yahweh says:
|
|
\q "As the shepherd rescues out of the mouth of the lion
|
|
\q two legs only, or a piece of an ear;
|
|
\q so will the people of Israel who live in Samaria be rescued;
|
|
\q they will be left with only the corner of a couch
|
|
\q or a piece of a bed."
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 Hear and testify
|
|
\q against the house of Jacob
|
|
\q —this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh, the God of hosts:
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 14 "For in the day that I punish the sins of Israel,
|
|
\q I will also punish the altars of Bethel.
|
|
\q The horns of the altar will be cut off
|
|
\q and fall to the ground.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 15 I will destroy the winter house
|
|
\q with the summer house.
|
|
\q The houses of ivory will perish,
|
|
\q and the large houses will vanish,
|
|
\q —this is Yahweh's declaration."
