# Chapter 4
|
|
1. Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria,
|
|
Who oppress the poor,
|
|
Who crush the needy,
|
|
Who say to your husbands, "Bring wine, let us drink!"
|
|
|
|
2. The Lord God has sworn by His holiness:
|
|
"Behold, the days shall come upon you
|
|
When He will take you away with fishhooks,
|
|
And your posterity with fishhooks.
|
|
|
|
3. You will go out through broken walls,
|
|
Each one straight ahead of her,
|
|
And you will be cast into Harmon,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
4. "Come to Bethel and transgress,
|
|
At Gilgal multiply transgression;
|
|
Bring your sacrifices every morning,
|
|
Your tithes every three days.
|
|
|
|
5. Offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven,
|
|
Proclaim and announce the freewill offerings;
|
|
For this you love,
|
|
You children of Israel!"
|
|
Says the Lord God.Israel Did Not Accept Correction
|
|
|
|
6. "Also I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities,
|
|
And lack of bread in all your places;
|
|
Yet you have not returned to Me,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
7. "I also withheld rain from you,
|
|
When there were still three months to the harvest.
|
|
I made it rain on one city,
|
|
I withheld rain from another city.
|
|
One part was rained upon,
|
|
And where it did not rain the part withered.
|
|
|
|
8. So two or three cities wandered to another city to drink water,
|
|
But they were not satisfied;
|
|
Yet you have not returned to Me,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
9. "I blasted you with blight and mildew.
|
|
When your gardens increased,
|
|
Your vineyards,
|
|
Your fig trees,
|
|
And your olive trees,
|
|
The locust devoured them;
|
|
Yet you have not returned to Me,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
10. "I sent among you a plague after the manner of Egypt;
|
|
Your young men I killed with a sword,
|
|
Along with your captive horses;
|
|
I made the stench of your camps come up into your nostrils;
|
|
Yet you have not returned to Me,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
11. "I overthrew some of you,
|
|
As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
|
|
And you were like a firebrand plucked from the burning;
|
|
Yet you have not returned to Me,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
12. "Therefore thus will I do to you, O Israel;
|
|
Because I will do this to you,
|
|
Prepare to meet your God, O Israel!"
|
|
|
|
13. For behold,
|
|
He who forms mountains,
|
|
And creates the wind,
|
|
Who declares to man what his thought is,
|
|
And makes the morning darkness,
|
|
Who treads the high places of the earth--
|
|
The Lord God of hosts is His name.
