I will give Israel up because of the sins Jeroboam has committed. He has also caused Israel to commit those same sins.”

因耶罗波安所犯的罪，又使以色列人陷在罪里，耶和华必将以色列人交给仇敌。”

因耶罗波安所犯的罪，又因他使以色列陷入罪里，耶和华必将以色列交出来。”

因耶罗波安所犯的罪，又因他使以色列陷入罪里，耶和华必将以色列交出来。”

因为耶罗波安犯罪作孽，使以色列人陷入罪中，耶和华必抛弃以色列。”

为了耶罗波安所犯的罪，又为了他使以色列人所犯的罪，耶和华必丢弃以色列人。”

因耶羅波安所犯的罪，又使以色列人陷在罪裏，耶和華必將以色列人交給仇敵。」

因耶羅波安所犯的罪，又因他使以色列陷入罪裏，耶和華必將以色列交出來。」

因了耶羅波安的罪、就是他自己犯了的、又使以色列人犯了的、永恆主必將以色列人放棄了。』

緣耶羅波安所犯之罪、使以色列人陷之、耶和華必棄以色列族、

蓋耶羅破暗已干罪戾、令以色列族陷罪、故耶和華必棄以色列族。

因耶羅波安干犯罪戾、使以色列人陷於罪、故主必將以色列人付於敵手、○

Baasha did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. He lived the way Jeroboam had lived. He committed the same sin Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit.

What Jeroboam did was sinful. And it caused Israel to sin. The people came to worship the statue at Bethel. They went all the way to Dan to worship the statue that was there.

The Lord judged Jeroboam’s family because of the sins Jeroboam had committed. He had also caused Israel to commit those same sins. He had made the Lord very angry. The Lord is the God of Israel.

All of that was the great sin the royal family of Jeroboam committed. It led to their fall from power. Because of it, they were destroyed from the face of the earth.

“ I lifted you up from the dust. I appointed you king over my people Israel. But you lived the way Jeroboam had lived. You also caused my people Israel to sin. And their sins made me very angry.

How terrible it will be for the world because of the things that cause people to sin! Things like that must come. But how terrible for the person who causes them!

The Lord struck the people with a plague. That’s because of what they did with the calf Aaron had made.

Ephraim will soon be crushed. The Assyrians will stomp all over them. It will happen because they have made up their minds to chase after other gods.I will be like a moth to Ephraim. I will cause Judah to rot away.

So I let them go their own stubborn way. I let them follow their own sinful plans.

The prophets prophesy lies. The priests rule by their own authority. And my people love it this way. But what will you do in the end?”

Ephraim is like a worthless plant. Its roots are dried up. It does not produce any fruit. Suppose Ephraim’s people have children. Then I will kill the children they love so much.”My God will turn his back on his people. They have not obeyed him. So they will wander among other nations.

They are planted. They are scattered like seeds. They put down roots in the ground. But as soon as that happens, God blows on them and they dry up. Then a windstorm sweeps them away like straw.

He said to Aaron,“ What did these people do to you? How did they make you lead them into such terrible sin?”

You have followed the evil practices of King Omri of Israel. You have done what the family of King Ahab did. You have followed their bad example. So I will let you be destroyed. Others will make fun of you. The nations will laugh at you.”

Ephraim’s greatness and glory will be gone. It will fly away like a bird. Women will no longer have children. They will not be able to get pregnant.But suppose they do have children. Then I will kill every one of them. How terrible it will be for them when I turn away from them!

Let us stop judging one another. Instead, decide not to put anything in the way of a brother or sister. Don’t put anything in their way that would make them trip and fall.
