1 H8085 Hear H1697 this word H3068 that the Lord H1696 has spoken H1121 against you, O sons H3478 of Israel, H4940 against the whole family H5927 which I brought up H776 from the land H4714 of Egypt, H559 saying,

2 H3045 You only have I known H4940 of all the families H127 of the earth: H6485 therefore I will punish H5771 you for all your iniquities.

3 H8147 Can two H3212 walk H3162 together, H1115 except H3259 they be agreed?

4 H738 Will a lion H7580 roar H3293 in the forest, H2964 when he has no prey? H3715 will a young lion H5414 cry out H4585 of his den, H3920 if he have taken H1115 nothing?

5 H6833 Can a bird H5307 fall H6341 in a snare H776 upon the earth, H4170 where no trap H5927 is for him? shall one take up H6341 a snare H127 from the earth, H3920 and have taken H3920 nothing at all?

6 H7782 Shall a trumpet H8628 be blown H5892 in the city, H5971 and the people H2729 not be afraid? H7451 shall there be evil H5892 in a city, H3068 and the Lord H6213 has not done it?

7 H136 Surely the Lord H3069 God H6213 will do H1697 nothing, H1540 but he reveals H5475 his secret H5650 unto his servants H5030 the prophets.

8 H738 The lion H7580 has roared, H3808 who will not H3372 fear? H136 the Lord H3069 God H1696 has spoken, H5012 who can but prophesy?

9 H8085 Publish H759 in the palaces H795 at Ashdod, H759 and in the palaces H776 in the land H4714 of Egypt, H559 and say, H622 Assemble H2022 yourselves upon the mountains H8111 of Samaria, H7200 and behold H7227 the great H4103 tumults H7130 in the midst H6217 there, and the oppressed H8432 in the midst there.

10 H3045 For they know H6213 not to do H5229 right, H5002 says H3068 the Lord, H686 who store H2555 up violence H7701 and robbery H759 in their palaces.

11 H559 Therefore thus says H136 the Lord H3069 God; H6862 An adversary H5439 there shall be even round about H776 the land; H3381 and he shall bring down H5797 your strength H759 from you, and your palaces H962 shall be spoiled.

12 H559 Thus says H3068 the Lord; H7462 As the shepherd H5337 takes out H6310 of the mouth H738 of the lion H8147 two H3767 legs, H915 or a piece H241 of a ear; H1121 so shall the sons H3478 of Israel H5337 be taken out H3427 that live H8111 in Samaria H6285 in the corner H4296 of a bed, H1833 and in Damascus H6210 in a couch.

13 H8085 Hear H5749 you, and testify H1004 in the house H3290 of Jacob, H5002 says H136 the Lord H3069 God, H430 the God H6635 of hosts,

14 H3117 That in the day H6485 that I shall visit H6588 the transgressions H3478 of Israel H6485 upon him I will also visit H4196 the altars H1008 of Beth–el: H7161 and the horns H4196 of the altar H1438 shall be cut off, H5307 and fall H776 to the ground.

15 H5221 And I will strike H2779 the winter H1004 house H7019 with the summer H1004 house; H1004 and the houses H8127 of ivory H6 shall perish, H7227 and the great H1004 houses H5486 shall have a end, H5002 says H3068 the Lord.
