Hear ye
this word that Jehovah
hath
spoken concerning
you, O sons
of Israel, concerning
all
the family that I brought up from
the land of Egypt ,
saying
:
Hear this word that the
LORD
has
spoken against
you, O children
of Israel, against
the whole
family that I brought up out
of
the land of Egypt:
Only you I
have known of
all families of the land,
Therefore I charge
on
you all your iniquities.
“
Only you have I
known from
all the
families of the earth;
therefore I will
punish
you for
all your iniquities. ”
Do
two walk together if
they
have
not
met
?
Can
two walk together without
agreeing
where
to
go
?
Roar
doth
a lion in a
forest and
prey
he hath
none
? Give
out
doth
a young lion his
voice
from
his habitation,
If he hath
not
caught?
Does
a lion roar
in the
forest when
he has
no
prey
? Does
a young lion growl
in
his den
if he has
caught nothing
?
Doth
a bird fall
into
a snare of
the
earth,
And
there
is
no gin
for
it
? Doth
a snare
go
up
from the ground ,
And
prey
it captureth
not
?
Does
a bird land
in
a snare where
no bait
has
been
set
? Does
a trap
spring
from the ground when
it has
nothing
to
catch
?

a trumpet
blown
in a city, And
do people not tremble? Is
there
affliction
in
a city, And
Jehovah
hath
not done
`
it '
?
If
a ram’s
horn
sounds
in a city, do the
people not tremble? If
calamity
comes
to
a city, has
not the
LORD
caused
it?
For
the Lord Jehovah
doth
nothing ,
Except
He
hath
revealed
His counsel
unto
His servants the prophets.
Surely
the Lord GOD
does
nothing without
revealing
His plan
to
His servants the prophets.

Sound
ye
unto
palaces
in
Ashdod ,
And to palaces
in
the land
of Egypt ,
and
say
: Be
ye
gathered
on mountains of Samaria ,
And
see many
troubles
within
her,
And oppressed
ones
in her midst.
Proclaim
to
the
citadels
of
Ashdod and to the citadels
of Egypt: “Assemble
on the
mountains of Samaria ;
see the
great
unrest
in
the
city
and the
acts
of
oppression
in her midst. ”
And
they have
not known
to act
straightforwardly,
An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, Who
are
treasuring
up violence and spoil
in their palaces
.
“For
they know
not how
to do
right
, ”
declares
the
LORD.
“They
store
up violence and destruction
in their citadels
. ”
Therefore ,
thus
said
the Lord Jehovah
: An adversary
--
and
surrounding
the land ,
And
he hath
brought
down from
thee
thy
strength,
And spoiled
have
been
thy
palaces
.
Therefore this
is
what
the Lord GOD
says
: “
An enemy
will
surround
the land ;
he will
pull
down your
strongholds
and plunder
your
citadels
. ”
Thus
said
Jehovah
: As the shepherd delivereth
from the lion's
mouth Two legs ,
or a piece of an ear, So delivered
are
the sons
of
Israel,
Who
are
sitting
in Samaria on
the corner of a bed ,
And
in
Damascus
`on
that
of '
a couch.
This
is
what
the
LORD
says
: “
As the shepherd snatches
from the mouth of
the
lion
two legs or a piece of an ear, so the Israelites
dwelling
in Samaria will
be
rescued
having
just
the corner of a bed or
the
cushion
of a couch.
Hear ye
and testify to
the house of Jacob, An
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah
, God of Hosts.
Hear and testify against
the house of Jacob, declares
the Lord GOD
, the
God of Hosts.
For
in
the day of
My
charging
the
transgressions
of
Israel on
him
, I have
laid
a
charge
on the altars of Beth-El,
And
cut
off
have
been
the horns of the altar, And they have
fallen
to the earth
.
On
the day I
punish
Israel for
their
transgressions
, I will
visit
destruction
on the altars of Bethel;
the horns of the altar will
be
cut
off
, and they will
fall
to the ground
.
And
I have
smitten
the winter -
house with the summer -
house ,
And
perished
have
houses of ivory, And consumed
have
been
many
houses ,
An affirmation
of
Jehovah!
I will
tear
down
the winter house along
with the summer house ;
the
houses of ivory will
also
perish
, and the
great
houses will
come
to
an end,”
declares
the
LORD.
