HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, ye childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: for the LORDH3068 hath a controversyH7379 with the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, because there is no truthH571, nor mercyH2617, nor knowledgeH1847 of GodH430 in the landH776.
By swearingH422, and lyingH3584, and killingH7523, and stealingH1589, and committing adulteryH5003, they break outH6555, and bloodH1818 touchethH5060 bloodH1818. {blood: Heb. bloods}
Therefore shall the landH776 mournH56, and every one that dwellethH3427 therein shall languishH535, with the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704, and with the fowlsH5775 of heavenH8064; yea, the fishesH1709 of the seaH3220 also shall be taken awayH622.
Yet let no manH376 striveH7378, nor reproveH3198 anotherH376: for thy peopleH5971 are as they that striveH7378 with the priestH3548.
Therefore shalt thou fallH3782 in the dayH3117, and the prophetH5030 also shall fallH3782 with thee in the nightH3915, and I will destroyH1820 thy motherH517. {destroy: Heb. cut off}
My peopleH5971 are destroyedH1820 for lack of knowledgeH1847: because thou hast rejectedH3988 knowledgeH1847, I will also rejectH3988 thee, that thou shalt be no priestH3547 to me: seeing thou hast forgottenH7911 the lawH8451 of thy GodH430, I will also forgetH7911 thy childrenH1121. {destroyed: Heb. cut off}
As they were increasedH7230, so they sinnedH2398 against me: therefore will I changeH4171 their gloryH3519 into shameH7036.
They eat upH398 the sinH2403 of my peopleH5971, and they setH5375 their heartH5315 on their iniquityH5771. {set…: Heb. lift up their soul to}
And there shall be, like peopleH5971, like priestH3548: and I will punishH6485 them for their waysH1870, and rewardH7725 them their doingsH4611. {punish: Heb. visit upon} {reward: Heb. cause to return}
For they shall eatH398, and not have enoughH7646: they shall commit whoredomH2181, and shall not increaseH6555: because they have left offH5800 to take heedH8104 to the LORDH3068.
WhoredomH2184 and wineH3196 and new wineH8492 take awayH3947 the heartH3820.
My peopleH5971 askH7592 counsel at their stocksH6086, and their staffH4731 declarethH5046 unto them: for the spiritH7307 of whoredomsH2183 hath caused them to errH8582, and they have gone a whoringH2181 from under their GodH430.
They sacrificeH2076 upon the topsH7218 of the mountainsH2022, and burn incenseH6999 upon the hillsH1389, under oaksH437 and poplarsH3839 and elmsH424, because the shadowH6738 thereof is goodH2896: therefore your daughtersH1323 shall commit whoredomH2181, and your spousesH3618 shall commit adulteryH5003.
I will not punishH6485 your daughtersH1323 when they commit whoredomH2181, nor your spousesH3618 when they commit adulteryH5003: for themselves are separatedH6504 with whoresH2181, and they sacrificeH2076 with harlotsH6948: therefore the peopleH5971 that doth not understandH995 shall fallH3832. {I will not: or, Shall I not} {fall: or, be punished}
Though thou, IsraelH3478, play the harlotH2181, yet let not JudahH3063 offendH816; and comeH935 not ye unto GilgalH1537, neither go ye upH5927 to BethavenH1007, nor swearH7650, The LORDH3068 livethH2416.
For IsraelH3478 slideth backH5637 as a backslidingH5637 heiferH6510: now the LORDH3068 will feedH7462 them as a lambH3532 in a large placeH4800.
EphraimH669 is joinedH2266 to idolsH6091: let him aloneH3240.
Their drinkH5435 is sourH5493: they have committed whoredomH2181 continuallyH2181: her rulersH4043 with shameH7036 do loveH157, GiveH3051 ye. {sour: Heb. gone} {rulers: Heb. shields}
The windH7307 hath bound her upH6887 in her wingsH3671, and they shall be ashamedH954 because of their sacrificesH2077.

My peopleH5971 askH7592 counsel at their stocksH6086, and their staffH4731 declarethH5046 unto them: for the spiritH7307 of whoredomsH2183 hath caused them to errH8582, and they have gone a whoringH2181 from under their GodH430.
EphraimH669 compassethH5437 me about with liesH3585, and the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 with deceitH4820: but JudahH3063 yet rulethH7300 with GodH410, and is faithfulH539 with the saintsH6918. {saints: or, most holy}
All their wickednessH7451 is in GilgalH1537: for there I hatedH8130 them: for the wickednessH7455 of their doingsH4611 I will drive them outH1644 of mine houseH1004, I will loveH160 them no moreH3254: all their princesH8269 are revoltersH5637.
BlowH8628 ye the cornetH7782 in GibeahH1390, and the trumpetH2689 in RamahH7414: cry aloudH7321 at BethavenH1007, afterH310 thee, O BenjaminH1144.
HearH8085 ye this, O houseH1004 of JacobH3290, which are calledH7121 by the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478, and are come forthH3318 out of the watersH4325 of JudahH3063, which swearH7650 by the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, and make mentionH2142 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, but not in truthH571, nor in righteousnessH6666.
The LORDH3068 saidH559 also unto me in the daysH3117 of JosiahH2977 the kingH4428, Hast thou seenH7200 that which backslidingH4878 IsraelH3478 hath doneH6213? she is gone upH1980 upon every highH1364 mountainH2022 and underH8478 every greenH7488 treeH6086, and there hath played the harlotH2181.
And I saidH559 afterH310 she had doneH6213 all these things, TurnH7725 thou unto me. But she returnedH7725 not. And her treacherousH901 sisterH269 JudahH3063 sawH7200 it.
And I sawH7200, when for all the causesH182 whereby backslidingH4878 IsraelH3478 committed adulteryH5003 I had put her awayH7971, and givenH5414 her a billH5612 of divorceH3748; yet her treacherousH898 sisterH269 JudahH3063 fearedH3372 not, but wentH3212 and played the harlotH2181 also.
And it came to pass through the lightnessH6963 of her whoredomH2184, that she defiledH2610 the landH776, and committed adulteryH5003 with stonesH68 and with stocksH6086. {lightness: or, fame}
And yet for all this her treacherousH901 sisterH269 JudahH3063 hath not turnedH7725 unto me with her whole heartH3820, but feignedlyH8267, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {feignedly: Heb. in falsehood}
Therefore the LORDH3068 was veryH3966 angryH599 with IsraelH3478, and removedH5493 them out of his sightH6440: there was none leftH7604 but the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063 only.
Is there iniquityH205 in GileadH1568? surely they are vanityH7723: they sacrificeH2076 bullocksH7794 in GilgalH1537; yea, their altarsH4196 are as heapsH1530 in the furrowsH8525 of the fieldsH7704.
The inhabitantsH7934 of SamariaH8111 shall fearH1481 because of the calvesH5697 of BethavenH1007: for the peopleH5971 thereof shall mournH56 over it, and the priestsH3649 thereof that rejoicedH1523 on it, for the gloryH3519 thereof, because it is departedH1540 from it. {the priests…: or, Chemarim}
And the namesH8034 of them were AholahH170 the elderH1419, and AholibahH172 her sisterH269: and they were mine, and they bareH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323. Thus were their namesH8034; SamariaH8111 is AholahH170, and JerusalemH3389 AholibahH172. {Aholah: that is, His tent, or, tabernacle} {Aholibah: that is, My tabernacle in her}
And AholahH170 played the harlotH2181 when she was mineH8478; and she dotedH5689 on her loversH157, on the AssyriansH804 her neighboursH7138,
Which were clothedH3847 with blueH8504, captainsH6346 and rulersH5461, all of them desirableH2531 young menH970, horsemenH6571 ridingH7392 upon horsesH5483.
Thus she committedH5414 her whoredomsH8457 with them, with all them that were the chosenH4005 menH1121 of AssyriaH804, and with all on whom she dotedH5689: with all their idolsH1544 she defiledH2930 herself. {committed…: Heb. bestowed her whoredoms upon them} {the chosen…: Heb. the choice of the children of Asshur}
Neither leftH5800 she her whoredomsH8457 brought from EgyptH4714: for in her youthH5271 they layH7901 with her, and they bruisedH6213 the breastsH1717 of her virginityH1331, and pouredH8210 their whoredomH8457 upon her.
Also JudahH3063 keptH8104 not the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, but walkedH3212 in the statutesH2708 of IsraelH3478 which they madeH6213.
ComeH935 to BethelH1008, and transgressH6586; at GilgalH1537 multiplyH7235 transgressionH6586; and bringH935 your sacrificesH2077 every morningH1242, and your tithesH4643 after threeH7969 yearsH3117: {three…: Heb. three years of days}
The high placesH1116 also of AvenH206, the sinH2403 of IsraelH3478, shall be destroyedH8045: the thornH6975 and the thistleH1863 shall come upH5927 on their altarsH4196; and they shall sayH559 to the mountainsH2022, CoverH3680 us; and to the hillsH1389, FallH5307 on us.
As for you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; GoH3212 ye, serveH5647 ye every oneH376 his idolsH1544, and hereafterH310 also, if ye will not hearkenH8085 unto me: but polluteH2490 ye my holyH6944 nameH8034 no more with your giftsH4979, and with your idolsH1544.
And yet for all this her treacherousH901 sisterH269 JudahH3063 hath not turnedH7725 unto me with her whole heartH3820, but feignedlyH8267, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {feignedly: Heb. in falsehood}
But seekH1875 not BethelH1008, nor enterH935 into GilgalH1537, and passH5674 not to BeershebaH884: for GilgalH1537 shall surelyH1540 go into captivityH1540, and BethelH1008 shall come to noughtH205.
Whereupon the kingH4428 took counselH3289, and madeH6213 twoH8147 calvesH5695 of goldH2091, and saidH559 unto them, It is too muchH7227 for you to go upH5927 to JerusalemH3389: behold thy godsH430, O IsraelH3478, which brought thee upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And a man's uncleH1730 shall take him upH5375, and he that burnethH5635 him, to bring outH3318 the bonesH6106 out of the houseH1004, and shall sayH559 unto him that is by the sidesH3411 of the houseH1004, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall sayH559, NoH657. Then shall he sayH559, Hold thy tongueH2013: for we may not make mentionH2142 of the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068. {we…: or, they will not, or, have not}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, The backslidingH4878 IsraelH3478 hath justifiedH6663 herselfH5315 more than treacherousH898 JudahH3063.
They that swearH7650 by the sinH819 of SamariaH8111, and sayH559, Thy godH430, O DanH1835, livethH2416; and, The mannerH1870 of BeershebaH884 livethH2416; even they shall fallH5307, and never rise upH6965 again. {manner: Heb. way}
AndG1161 thatG1565 servantG1401, whichG3588 knewG1097 hisG1438 lord'sG2962 willG2307, andG2532 preparedG2090 notG3361 himself, neitherG3366 didG4160 accordingG4314 to hisG846 willG2307, shall be beatenG1194 with manyG4183 stripes.
And them that worshipH7812 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 upon the housetopsH1406; and them that worshipH7812 and that swearH7650 by the LORDH3068, and that swearH7650 by MalchamH4428; {by the…: or, to the LORD}
ButG1161 he that knewG1097 notG3361, andG1161 did commitG4160 things worthyG514 of stripesG4127, shall be beatenG1194 with fewG3641 stripes. ForG1161 unto whomsoeverG3739+G3956 muchG4183 is givenG1325, ofG3844 himG846 shall be muchG4183 requiredG2212: andG2532 to whom menG3739 have committedG3908 muchG4183, of himG846 they will askG154 the moreG4055.
