1“Hear this word, 4:1 Ps. 22:12you cows of Bashan,

who are 4:1 ch. 3:9; 6:1on the mountain of Samaria,

4:1 Hos. 5:11who oppress the poor, 4:1 Hos. 5:11who crush the needy,

who say to your husbands, ‘Bring, that we may drink!’

24:2 Ps. 89:35The Lord God has sworn by his holiness

that, behold, the days are coming upon you,

4:2 [Jer. 16:16; Hab. 1:15]; See 2 Kgs. 19:28when they shall take you away with hooks,

4:2 [Jer. 16:16; Hab. 1:15]; See 2 Kgs. 19:28even the last of you with fishhooks.

34:3 [Ezek. 12:5, 12]And you shall go out through the breaches,

each one straight ahead;

and you shall be cast out into Harmon,”

declares the Lord.

44:4 [ch. 5:5; Ezek. 20:39; Matt. 23:32] “Come to Bethel, and transgress;

to 4:4 [ch. 5:5; Hos. 4:15; 9:15; 12:11] Gilgal, and multiply transgression;

4:4 [ch. 5:5; Ezek. 20:39; Matt. 23:32] bring your 4:4 Num. 28:3, 4; [Jer. 7:21]sacrifices every morning,

your tithes every three days;

5offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of 4:5 Lev. 7:13that which is leavened,

and proclaim 4:5 Ex. 35:29; Lev. 22:18, 21; Deut. 12:6freewill offerings, publish them;

4:5 [Ps. 81:11, 12]for so you love to do, O people of Israel!”

declares the Lord God.

Israel Has Not Returned to the Lord

6“I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities,

and 4:6 [Deut. 28:57; Lam. 2:12] lack of bread in all your places,

4:6 Jer. 15:7; Hag. 2:17yet you did not return to me,”

declares the Lord.

7“I also 4:7 Jer. 3:3; [Joel 2:23] withheld the rain from you

when there were yet three months to the harvest;

4:7 [Ex. 9:26]I would send rain on one city,

and send no rain on another city;

one field would have rain,

and the field on which it did not rain would wither;

8so two or three cities 4:8 [ch. 8:12] would wander to another city

to drink water, and would not be satisfied;

4:8 [See ver. 6above]yet you did not return to me,”

declares the Lord.

94:9 Deut. 28:22; Hag. 2:17“I struck you with blight and mildew;

your many gardens and your vineyards,

your fig trees and your olive trees 4:9 Joel 1:4the locust devoured;

4:9 [See ver. 6above]yet you did not return to me,”

declares the Lord.

10“I sent among you a pestilence 4:10 Deut. 28:27, 60; [Ex. 12:29; Ps. 78:50; Isa. 10:24, 26] after the manner of Egypt;

I killed your young men with the sword,

and 4:10 2 Kgs. 13:7carried away your horses,4:10 Hebrew along with the captivity of your horses

and 4:10 [Joel 2:20] I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils;

4:10 [See ver. 6above]yet you did not return to me,”

declares the Lord.

11“I overthrew some of you,

4:11 [Isa. 13:19] as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,

and you were 4:11 Zech. 3:2; [Jude 23] as a brand4:11 That is, a burning stick plucked out of the burning;

4:11 [See ver. 6above]yet you did not return to me,”

declares the Lord.

12“Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel;

because I will do this to you,

prepare to meet your God, O Israel!”

13For behold, 4:13 [Ps. 102:25] he who forms the mountains and creates the wind,

and 4:13 [Ps. 139:2] declares to man what is his thought,

4:13 [ch. 5:8; 8:9] who makes the morning darkness,

and 4:13 Isa. 58:14; Mic. 1:3treads on the heights of the earth—

4:13 ch. 3:13; 5:8; 9:6; See Jer. 10:16the Lord, the God of hosts, is his name!
