That city is like a wreath. The leaders of Ephraim are drunk. They take pride in their city. But its enemies will walk all over it.

以法莲高傲的酒徒，他的冠冕必被踏在脚下。

以法莲酒徒高傲的冠冕，必被脚践踏；

以法莲酒徒高傲的冠冕，必被脚践踏；

以法莲酒徒引以为荣的华冠必被践踏。

以法莲的醉汉所戴的高傲冠冕，必被践踏在脚下。

以法莲酒徒的高傲冠冕，必被踩踏在脚下；

以法蓮高傲的酒徒，他的冠冕必被踏在腳下。

以法蓮酒徒高傲的冠冕，必被腳踐踏；

以法蓮酒徒高傲的冠冕，必被腳踐踏；

以法蓮酒徒引以為榮的華冠必被踐踏。

以法蓮的醉漢所戴的高傲冠冕，必被踐踏在腳下。

以法蓮醉漢高傲的華冠必被踐踏於腳下；

以法蓮酒徒的高傲冠冕，必被踩踏在腳下；

以法蓮醉者高傲之冠冕、被踐於足下、

以法蓮建都山巔、望之若冠花冠、四周有谷、土壤膏腴、民人沉湎於酒、心志驕奢、不知浮榮易悴、竟遭蹂躪、亦如夏之無花果、人一見之、則摘而食焉。

以法蓮醉者之華冠、必踐於足下、

That wreath, the pride of Ephraim’s drunkards, will be trampled underfoot.

The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden underfoot;

The proud city of Samaria— the glorious crown of the drunks of Israel— will be trampled beneath its enemies’ feet.

The majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.

The splendid crown of the habitually drunk of Ephraim is trampled underfoot.

The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, Will be trampled underfoot;

The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under foot:

The majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.

The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:

The splendid crown of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.

The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden under foot.

Then I heard a holy angel speaking. Another holy angel spoke to him. He asked,“ How long will it take for the vision to come true? When will the daily sacrifices be stopped? When will those who refuse to obey God be destroyed? When will the temple be handed over to an enemy? And when will some of the Lord’ s people be stomped on?”

The feet of those who were treated badly stomp on them. Those who were poor walk all over them.”

But do not measure the outer courtyard. That’s because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will take over the holy city for 42 months.

“ Throw her down!” Jehu said. So they threw her down. Some of her blood splashed on the wall. Some of it splashed on Jehu’s chariot horses as they ran over her.

The Lord’ s power will keep Mount Zion safe. But the people of Moab will be crushed in their land. They will be crushed just as straw is crushed in animal waste.

People who deserve even more punishment include those who have hated the Son of God. They include people who have said no to him. They include people who have treated as unholy the blood of the covenant that makes them holy. They also include people who have disrespected the Holy Spirit who brings God’s grace. Don’t you think people like this should be punished more than anyone else?

“ The Lord has refused to accept any of my soldiers. He has sent for an army to crush my young men. I am like grapes in the Lord’s winepress. He has stomped on me, even though I am his very own.

How terrible it will be for the city of Samaria! It sits on a hill like a wreath of flowers. The leaders of Ephraim are drunk. They take pride in their city. It sits above a valley that has rich soil. How terrible it will be for the glorious beauty of that fading flower!
