1 Set the trumpet|strong="H7782" to thy mouth|strong="H2441". He shall come as an eagle|strong="H5404" against the house|strong="H1004" of the \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w*, because they have transgressed|strong="H5674" my covenant|strong="H1285", and trespassed|strong="H6586" against my law|strong="H8451".
2 Israel|strong="H3478" shall cry|strong="H2199" unto me, My God|strong="H0430", we know|strong="H3045" thee.
3 Israel|strong="H3478" hath cast off|strong="H2186" the thing that is good|strong="H2896": the enemy|strong="H0341" shall pursue|strong="H7291" him.
4 They have set up kings|strong="H4427", but not by me: they have made princes|strong="H7786", and I knew|strong="H3045" it not: of their silver|strong="H3701" and their gold|strong="H2091" have they made|strong="H6213" them idols|strong="H6091", that they may be cut off|strong="H3772".
5 Thy calf|strong="H5695", O Samaria|strong="H8111", hath cast|strong="H2186" thee off; mine anger|strong="H0639" is kindled|strong="H2734" against them: how long will it be ere|strong="H3808" they attain|strong="H3201" to innocency|strong="H5356"?
6 For from Israel|strong="H3478" was it also: the workman|strong="H2796" made|strong="H6213" it; therefore it is not God|strong="H0430": but the calf|strong="H5695" of Samaria|strong="H8111" shall be broken in pieces|strong="H7616".
7 For they have sown|strong="H2232" the wind|strong="H7307", and they shall reap|strong="H7114" the whirlwind|strong="H5492": it hath no stalk|strong="H7054": the bud|strong="H6780" shall yield|strong="H6213" no meal|strong="H7058": if|strong="H0194" so be it yield|strong="H6213", the strangers|strong="H2114" shall swallow it up|strong="H1104".
8 Israel|strong="H3478" is swallowed up|strong="H1104": now shall they be among the Gentiles|strong="H1471" as a vessel|strong="H3627" wherein is no pleasure|strong="H2656".
9 For they are gone up|strong="H5927" to Assyria|strong="H0804", a wild ass|strong="H6501" alone|strong="H0909" by himself: Ephraim|strong="H0669" hath hired|strong="H8566" lovers|strong="H0158".
10 Yea, though they have hired|strong="H8566" among the nations|strong="H1471", now will I gather|strong="H6908" them, and they shall sorrow|strong="H2490" a little|strong="H4592" for the burden|strong="H4853" of the king|strong="H4428" of princes|strong="H8269".
11 Because Ephraim|strong="H0669" hath made many|strong="H7235" altars|strong="H4196" to sin|strong="H2398", altars|strong="H4196" shall be unto him to sin|strong="H2398".
12 I have written|strong="H3789" to him the great things|strong="H7230" of my law|strong="H8451", but they were counted|strong="H2803" as a strange thing|strong="H2114".
13 They sacrifice|strong="H2076" flesh|strong="H1320" for the sacrifices|strong="H2077" of mine offerings|strong="H1890", and eat|strong="H0398" it; but the \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w* accepteth|strong="H7521" them not; now will he remember|strong="H2142" their iniquity|strong="H5771", and visit|strong="H6485" their sins|strong="H2403": they shall return|strong="H7725" to Egypt|strong="H4714".
14 For Israel|strong="H3478" hath forgotten|strong="H7911" his Maker|strong="H6213", and buildeth|strong="H1129" temples|strong="H1964"; and Judah|strong="H3063" hath multiplied|strong="H7235" fenced|strong="H1219" cities|strong="H5892": but I will send|strong="H7971" a fire|strong="H0784" upon his cities|strong="H5892", and it shall devour|strong="H0398" the palaces|strong="H0759" thereof.
