你的姊姊是撒瑪利亞，她和她的女兒們住在你的北面；你的妹妹是所多瑪，她和她的女兒們住在你的南面。

信差就帶著王和眾領袖發出的書信，走遍全以色列和猶大，照著王的吩咐，宣告說：“以色列人哪，你們應當轉向耶和華，亞伯拉罕、以撒和以色列的神，使他也轉向你們這些在亞述王手中逃脫的餘民。你們不要像你們的列祖和你們的親族，他們得罪了耶和華他們列祖的神，以致耶和華使他們成為令人驚駭的對象，就像你們自己所見的。現在你們不可頑固，像你們的列祖那樣；要順服耶和華，進入他永遠分別為聖的聖所，事奉耶和華你們的神，使他的烈怒轉離你們。如果你們是歸向耶和華，你們的親族和兒女就必在俘擄他們的人面前蒙憐憫，可以返回這地；因為耶和華你們的神是有恩惠有憐憫；如果你們歸向他，他必不轉臉不顧你們。”信差從這城到那城，走遍了以法蓮和瑪拿西各地，直到西布倫；那裡的人卻戲弄他們，譏笑他們。可是在亞設、瑪拿西和西布倫中，也有人願意謙卑，來到耶路撒冷。神的能力也幫助猶大人，使他們一心遵行王和眾領袖奉耶和華的命令發出的吩咐。

耶和華曾藉著他的眾先知和先見警告以色列人和猶大人說：“從你們的惡道上轉回吧！謹守我的吩咐和我的律例，就是我曾吩咐你們的祖先，和藉著我的僕人眾先知傳遞給你們的一切律法。”可是他們不聽從，反而硬著自己的頸項，好像他們的祖先，不信服耶和華他們的神；

“來吧！讓我們回轉歸向耶和華；因為，他雖然撕裂了我們，但必定醫治我們；他雖然擊傷了我們，卻必替我們裹傷。兩天以後，他要使我們復原；第三天，他使我們起來，我們就可以活在他的面前。讓我們認識，竭力追求認識耶和華。他必定出現，像晨光一樣，他必臨到我們，如雨水一般，又像滋潤大地的春雨。“以法蓮啊！我要怎樣待你呢？猶大啊，我要怎樣待你呢？你們的愛心像早晨的雲霧；又像瞬即消逝的朝露。

以色列啊，回轉吧！回到耶和華你的神那裡，因為你是因自己的罪孽跌倒的。（本節在《馬索拉文本》為14:2）

因背道的以色列犯了淫亂，我就給她休書，把她休了。我看見她詭詐的妹妹猶大還是不懼怕，照樣行淫。因以色列把自己的淫行視作等閒，去與石頭木頭行淫，就把這地玷污了。雖然這樣，她詭詐的妹妹猶大還沒有全心歸向我，只是假意地歸我。”這是耶和華的宣告。耶和華對我說：“背道的以色列，比詭詐的猶大還顯得正義。

“人子啊！有兩個女人，都是同一個母親生的。她們在埃及行邪淫，在幼年的時候行了邪淫，在那裡她們的胸被人撫摩；在那裡她們處女的乳房被人撫弄。姊姊的名字是阿荷拉，妹妹的名字是阿荷利巴；她們都嫁了給我，並且生了兒女。論到她們的名字，阿荷拉就是撒瑪利亞，阿荷利巴就是耶路撒冷。
