Wo
`
to '
those secure
in Zion ,
And those confident
in
the
mount of
Samaria, The marked
of
the
chief
of the nations
, And
come
to them
have
the house of Israel.
Woe
to those at
ease
in Zion and those secure
on
Mount Samaria, the distinguished
ones
of the foremost
nation
, to whom
the house of Israel comes
.
Pass
ye
over `
to '
Calneh and see ,
And
go thence
`
to '
Hamath
the great ,
And
go down `
to '
Gath of the Philistines ,
Are `they'
better than these kingdoms? Greater
`
is '
their border
than your
border
?
Cross
over to Calneh and see ;
go from
there
to the great Hamath;
then
go down to Gath of the Philistines .
Are you
better than these kingdoms? Is their territory
larger
than yours
?
Who
are
putting
away
the day of evil,
And ye
bring nigh
the
seat
of violence ,
You
dismiss
the day of calamity
and bring near
a
reign
of violence .
Who
are
lying
down
on beds of
ivory, And are
spread
out
on
their
couches ,
And
are
eating
lambs from the flock ,
And calves from the midst
of
the
stall ,
You
lie
on beds inlaid
with
ivory, and lounge
upon
your
couches .
You
dine
on
lambs from the flock and calves from the stall .
Who
are
taking
part
according
to
the psaltery,
Like David they
invented
for
themselves
instruments of
music;
You
improvise
songs
on
the harp
like David and
invent
your
own
musical
instruments .
Who
are
drinking
with
bowls
of
wine ,
And `with'
chief
perfumes
anoint `themselves'
, And
have
not
been
pained
for
the breach
of Joseph.
You
drink
wine by
the
bowlful
and anoint yourselves
with
the
finest
oils
, but
you
fail
to
grieve
over
the ruin
of Joseph.
Therefore now they
remove
at
the head
of the captives, And turned
aside
is
the
mourning-feast
of
stretched-out
ones
.
Therefore ,
you
will
now go
into
exile
as
the first
of the captives, and your
feasting
and
lounging
will
come
to
an
end
.
Sworn
hath
the Lord Jehovah
by Himself ,
An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, God of Hosts: I am
abominating
the
excellency
of
Jacob,
And his high
places
I
have
hated
, And
I have
delivered
up the city and its
fulness
.
The Lord GOD
has
sworn
by Himself —the
LORD
, the
God of Hosts ,
has
declared
: “
I abhor
Jacob’s
pride
and detest
his citadels
, so
I will
deliver
up the city and everything
in
it
. ”
And if there are left
ten persons
in one house, It
hath
come
to
pass
--
that
they have
died
.
And if there are ten men
left
in one house, they too
will
die
.
And lifted
him
up
hath
his
loved
one,
even
his
burner,
To bring
forth
the bones
from the house, And
he said
to him
who
`is'
in
the
sides
of
the
house
, `
Is there
yet
with thee
? '
And
he
said,
`
None, '
then
he
said
, `Hush!
Save
to
make
mention
of
the name of Jehovah
. '
And when
the
relative
who
is
to burn
the bodies
picks
them
up
to
remove
them
from the house, he will
call
to one
inside
, “
Is anyone
else
with you
? ”
“
None, ”
that
person
will
answer.
“Silence
, ”
the relative
will
retort,
“for
the
name of the
LORD
must
not
be
invoked
. ”
For lo,
Jehovah
is
commanding,
And
He
hath
smitten
the great house `with'
breaches
, And the little
house `with'
clefts
.
For the LORD
gives
a
command:
“The
great house will
be
smashed
to
pieces
, and the small
house to
rubble
. ”
Do horses run
on a
rock
? Doth
one plough
`it'
with oxen? For
ye
have turned to
gall
judgment,
And the fruit of righteousness to
wormwood .
“
Do horses gallop
on the
cliffs
? Does
one plow
the
sea
with oxen? But
you
have turned justice
into
poison
and the fruit of righteousness into
wormwood —
O
ye
who
are
rejoicing
at
nothing,
Who are
saying
, `Have
we not by our strength taken
to
ourselves
horns
? '
you
who rejoice
in
Lo-debar
and
say
, ‘Did
we not take
Karnaim
by our own
strength? ’
Surely,
lo
, I am
raising
against
you
a nation, O house of Israel, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, God of Hosts, And they have
oppressed
you from the
coming
in
to
Hamath ,
Unto
the stream
of the desert
.
For
behold
, I will
raise
up
a nation against
you
, O house of Israel, ”
declares
the
LORD
, the
God of Hosts, “
and they will
oppress
you from Lebo-
hamath to
the Brook
of the Arabah
. ”
