1.8 KiB
Chapter 12
-
The people of Israel feed on the wind; they chase after the east wind all day long. They pile up lies and violence; they are making an alliance with Assyria while sending olive oil to buy support from Egypt.
-
Now the LORD is bringing charges against Judah. He is about to punish Jacob for all his deceitful ways, and pay him back for all he has done.
-
Even in the womb, Jacob struggled with his brother; when he became a man, he even fought with God.
-
Yes, he wrestled with the angel and won. He wept and pleaded for a blessing from him. There at Bethel he met God face to face, and God spoke to him--
-
the LORD God of Heaven's Armies, the LORD is his name!
-
So now, come back to your God. Act with love and justice, and always depend on him.
-
But no, the people are like crafty merchants selling from dishonest scales-- they love to cheat.
-
Israel boasts, "I am rich! I've made a fortune all by myself! No one has caught me cheating! My record is spotless!"
-
"But I am the LORD your God, who rescued you from slavery in Egypt. And I will make you live in tents again, as you do each year at the Festival of Shelters.
-
I sent my prophets to warn you with many visions and parables."
-
But the people of Gilead are worthless because of their idol worship. And in Gilgal, too, they sacrifice bulls; their altars are lined up like the heaps of stone along the edges of a plowed field.
-
Jacob fled to the land of Aram, and there he earned a wife by tending sheep.
-
Then by a prophet the LORD brought Jacob's descendants out of Egypt; and by that prophet they were protected.
-
But the people of Israel have bitterly provoked the LORD, so their Lord will now sentence them to death in payment for their sins.
