以色列族乎、爾自取戾、惟望可得救、昔爾求我、欲得王公、護爾城邑、今爾王安在、士師安在、

彼不知所得之五穀酒油金銀、皆我所畀、彼反獻於巴力、

今為惡益甚、匠人以巧捷之技、鎔銀鑄像、祭司命眾、敬彼犢像、接吻以為禮、

以色列族眾知王不聽、則告王曰、我與耶西之子大闢何與、我族當各歸故土、大闢之家爾自治之。於是以色列族各歸故土。惟居猶大眾邑者尚歸羅波暗統轄。時羅波暗王遣理貢物之亞多蘭、至以色列、以色列族石擊之、斃其命、王疾登車、遁於耶路撒冷、以色列族背大闢之家、以迄於今、尚未臣服。以色列族眾知耶羅破暗已歸、則遣人招集會眾、立之為王、轄以色列族、除猶大支派以外。從大闢家者、絶無一人。

從尼八子耶羅破暗所行、猶為細事、乃娶西頓王、謁巴力女、耶洗別為后、遂服事崇拜巴力、

籌思既竟、作二金犢、告民曰、詣耶路撒冷甚難、昔導以色列族出自埃及之上帝即此。

今識上帝更為上帝所識、奈何復向委靡卑狹之小學而從之乎、

彼將曰、我言不識爾何自而來、眾不義、離我去矣、

我乃善牧、識我羊、羊亦我識、

以色列族乎、當革爾惡行、新爾心神、奚為自取其死。

萬有之主以色列族之上帝耶和華曰、何為蹈此罪愆、使猶大男女、孩提、以及乳哺、為我所絶、靡有孑遺。何為於所居埃及之地、造作偶像、焚香奉事他上帝、干我震怒、為我棄絶、為列邦人咒詛、凌侮、皆由自取。

曰、我誠告爾、我不爾識也、

家主起而閉門、爾曹立於外、叩門曰、主也、主也、為我啟之、彼將曰、奚自、我不識爾、

是事陷耶羅破暗家於罪戾、故上帝滅之於天下。
