1 Hear H8085 H853 this H2088 word H1697 that H834 the LORD H3068 hath spoken H1696 against H5921 you , O children H1121 of Israel, H3478 against H5921 the whole H3605 family H4940 which H834 I brought up H5927 from the land H4480 H776 of Egypt, H4714 saying, H559
2 You only H7535 have I known H3045 of all H4480 H3605 the families H4940 of the earth: H127 therefore H5921 H3651 I will punish H6485 H5921 you H853 for all H3605 your iniquities. H5771
3 Can two H8147 walk H1980 together, H3162 except H1115 H518 they be agreed H3259 ?
4 Will a lion H738 roar H7580 in the forest, H3293 when he hath no H369 prey H2964 ? will a young lion H3715 cry H5414 H6963 out of his den H4480 H4585 , if H518 he have taken H3920 nothing H1115 ?
5 Can a bird H6833 fall H5307 in H5921 a snare H6341 upon the earth, H776 where no H369 gin H4170 is for him? shall one take up H5927 a snare H6341 from H4480 the earth, H127 and have taken nothing at all H3920 H3808 H3920 ?
6 Shall a trumpet H7782 be blown H8628 in the city, H5892 and the people H5971 not H3808 be afraid H2729 ? shall there be H1961 evil H7451 in a city, H5892 and the LORD H3068 hath not H3808 done H6213 it ?
7 Surely H3588 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 will do H6213 nothing H3808 H1697 , but H3588 H518 he revealeth H1540 his secret H5475 unto H413 his servants H5650 the prophets. H5030
8 The lion H738 hath roared, H7580 who H4310 will not H3808 fear H3372 ? the Lord H136 GOD H3069 hath spoken, H1696 who H4310 can but H3808 prophesy H5012 ?
9 Publish H8085 in H5921 the palaces H759 at Ashdod, H795 and in H5921 the palaces H759 in the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 and say, H559 Assemble yourselves H622 upon H5921 the mountains H2022 of Samaria, H8111 and behold H7200 the great H7227 tumults H4103 in the midst H8432 thereof , and the oppressed H6217 in the midst H7130 thereof.
10 For they know H3045 not H3808 to do H6213 right, H5229 saith H5002 the LORD, H3068 who store up H686 violence H2555 and robbery H7701 in their palaces. H759
11 Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 An adversary H6862 there shall be even round about H5439 the land; H776 and he shall bring down H3381 thy strength H5797 from H4480 thee , and thy palaces H759 shall be spoiled. H962
12 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD; H3068 As H834 the shepherd H7462 taketh H5337 out of the mouth H4480 H6310 of the lion H738 two H8147 legs, H3767 or H176 a piece H915 of an ear; H241 so H3651 shall the children H1121 of Israel H3478 be taken out H5337 that dwell H3427 in Samaria H8111 in the corner H6285 of a bed, H4296 and in Damascus H1833 in a couch. H6210
13 Hear H8085 ye , and testify H5749 in the house H1004 of Jacob, H3290 saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD, H3069 the God H430 of hosts, H6635
14 That H3588 in the day H3117 that I shall visit H6485 the transgressions H6588 of Israel H3478 upon H5921 him I will also visit H6485 H5921 the altars H4196 of Bethel: H1008 and the horns H7161 of the altar H4196 shall be cut off, H1438 and fall H5307 to the ground. H776
15 And I will smite H5221 the winter H2779 house H1004 with H5921 the summer H7019 house; H1004 and the houses H1004 of ivory H8127 shall perish, H6 and the great H7227 houses H1004 shall have an end, H5486 saith H5002 the LORD. H3068
