4 And the mountains will be melted under Him, and the vales will rend as wax from the presence of fire, as water being spilled on a descent."
5 All this comes for the transgression of Jacob, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what is the sin of the house of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?
6 And I will make Samaria a rubbish heap, a field for the plantings of a vineyard. And I will spill her stones into the ravine, and her foundations will I expose."
7 And all her carvings shall be pounded to pieces, and all her fees shall be burned with fire. And all her grief fetishes will I make a desolation; for from the fee of a prostitute she got them together, and unto the fee of a prostitute shall they return."
8 On this account will I wail and howl; I will go looted and naked. I will make a wailing as the jackals, and a mourning as the daughters of the ostrich;"
9 for her smiting is mortal, for it comes unto Judah. It touches unto the gateway of my people, unto Jerusalem."
