who are on the hill of Samaria,
|

women who oppress the poor
|
||||
and crush the needy,
|

who say to their husbands,
|
||||
"Bring us something to drink."
|
||||
|

2.
|
||||
|

||||
“Bring us something to drink.”
|
||||
2 The Lord God has sworn by his holiness:
|
||||
Look, the days are coming
|
||||
when you will be taken away with hooks,
|
||||
every last one of you with fishhooks.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
each woman straight ahead,
|

and you will be driven along toward Harmon.

4 Come to Bethel and rebel;
|
||||
rebel even more at Gilgal!

Bring your sacrifices every morning,
|

your tenths every three days.

6 I gave you absolutely nothing to eat in all your cities,
|
||||
a shortage of food in all your communities,
|
||||
yet you did not return to me.

This is the Lord's declaration.
|
||||
|
||||
7. I also withheld the rain from you

This is the Lord’s declaration.
|
||||
7 I also withheld the rain from you
|
||||
while there were still three months until harvest.
|
||||
|
||||
I sent rain on one city
|
||||
but no rain on another.
|
||||
|
||||
One field received rain
|
||||
while a field with no rain withered.
|

||||
This is the Lord's declaration.

|
||||
9 I struck you with blight and mildew;
|
||||
the locust devoured
|
||||
your many gardens and vineyards,
|
||||
your fig trees and olive trees,
|
||||
yet you did not return to me.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the Lord's declaration.
|
||||
|
||||
10. I sent plagues like those of Egypt;

This is the Lord’s declaration.
|
||||
10 I sent plagues like those of Egypt;
|
||||
I killed your young men with the sword,
|
||||
along with your captured horses.
|
||||
|
||||
I caused the stench of your camp
|
||||
to fill your nostrils,
|
||||
yet you did not return to me.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the Lord's declaration.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
This is the Lord’s declaration.
|
||||
11 I overthrew some of you
|
||||
as I overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
|
||||
and you were like a burning stick
|
||||
snatched from a fire,
|
||||
yet you did not return to me--
|
||||
This is the Lord's declaration.
|
||||
|
||||
12. Therefore, Israel, that is what I will do to you,
|
||||
yet you did not return to me—
|
||||
This is the Lord’s declaration.
|
||||
12 Therefore, Israel, that is what I will do to you,
|
||||
and since I will do that to you,
|
||||
Israel, prepare to meet your God!
|
||||
|
||||
13. He is here:

||||
13 He is here:
|
||||
the one who forms the mountains,
|
||||
creates the wind,
|
||||
and reveals his thoughts to man,
|
||||
the one who makes the dawn out of darkness
|
||||
and strides on the heights of the earth.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The Lord, the God of Armies, is his name.
