Thus saith the Lord GOD: The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the sab- bath day it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened. 2And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate without, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests shall pre- pare his burnt-offering and his peace- offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate; then he shall go forth; but the gate shall not be shut until the evening. 3Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of that gate before the LORD in the sabbaths and in the new moons. 4Ahd the burnt-offering that the prince shall offer unto the LORD shall be in the sabbath day six lambs without blemish and a ram without Dlemish; 5and the meal-offering shall be an ephah for tKe ram, and the meal- offering for the lambs as he is able bo give, and a hin of oil to an ephah. 6And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock without Dlemish; and six lambs, and a ram; ihey shall be without blemish; 7and he shall prepare a meal-offering, an ephah for the bullock, and an ephah ror the ram, and for the lambs accord- ing as his "means suffice, and a hin of oil to an ephah. 8And when the )rince shall enter, he shall go in by ;he way of the porch of the gate, and le shall go forth by the way thereof. But when the people of the land EZEKIEL shall come before the LORD in the appointed seasons, he that entereth by the way of the north gate to worship shall go forth by the way of the south gate; and he that entereth by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate; he shall not return by the way of the gate whereby he came in, but shall go forth straight before him. 10And the prince, when they go in, shall go in m the midst of them; and when they go forth, they shall go forth together. 11 And in the feasts and in the appointed seasons the meal-offering shall be an ephahfor a bullock, and an ephahfor a ram, and for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
12And when the prince shall prepare a freewill-offering, a burnt-offering or peace-offerings as a freewill-offering unto the LORD, one shall open for him the gate that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt- offering and his peace-offerings, as he doth on the sabbath day; then he shall go forth; and after his going forth one shall shut the gate.
13And thou shalt prepare a lamb of the first year without blemish for a burn1>-offermg unto the LORD daily; morning by morning shalt thou pre- pare it. "And thou shalt prepare a meal-offering with it morning by morn- ing, the sixth part of an ephah, and the third part of a hin of oil, to moisten the fine flour: a meal-offering unto the LORD continually by a perpetual ordinance. 18Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meal-offering, and the oil, morning by morning, for a continual burnt-offering.
416Thus saith the Lord GOD: If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, it is his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance. 17But if he give of his inheritance a gift to one of his servants, it shall be his to the year of liberty; then it shall return to the prince; but as for his inheritance, it shall be for his sons. 18Moreover the prince shall not take of ttie people's inher- itance, to thrust them wrongfully out of their possession; he shall give in- heritance to his sons out of his own possession; that My people be not scattered every man from his pos- session.'
19Then he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers for the priests j which looked toward the north, and, behold, there was a place on the hinder part westward. 20And he said unto me: ' This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt- off enng and the sm-offering, where they shall bake the meal-offering; that they bring them not forth into the outer court, to sanctify the people.'
21Then he brought me forth into the outer court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every corner of the court there was a court. 22In the four corners of the court there were courts inclosed, forty cubits long and thirty broad; these four in the corners were of one measure. ^And there was a row of masonry round about in them, round about the four, and it was made with boiling-placed under the rows round about. 24Then said he unto me: ' These are the boiling-places, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice 6f the people.' AJ7 And he brought me back unto •*• the door of the house; and, be- hold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward, for the forefront of the house looked toward the east; and the waters came down from under, from the right side EZEKIEL EZEKIEL of the house, on the south of the altar, ^hen brought he me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me round by the way without unto the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looketh toward the east and, behold, there trickled forth waters on the right side.
3When the man wen* forth east- ward with the line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles. 4Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through waters that were to the loins. 5Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through; for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through. 6Ajadhesaiduntome: 'Hast thou seen this, 0 son of man?' Then he led me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
7Now when I had been brought back, behold, upon the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other. 8Then said he unto me: 'These waters issue forth 'toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah; and when they shall enter into the sea, into the sea of the putrid waters, the waters shall be healed. 9And it shall come to pass, that every living creature where- with it swanneth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live; and there shall be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters are come thither, that all things be healed and may live whithersoever the river cometh. 10And it shall come to pass, that fishers shall stand by it from En-gedi even unto En-eglaim; there shall be a place for the spreading of nets; their fish shall be after their kinds, as the fish of the Great Sea, exceeding many. nBut the miry places thereof, and the marshes thereof, shall not be healed; they shall be given for salt. 12And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, neither shall the fruit thereof fail; it shall bring forth new fruit every month, because the waters there- of issue out of the sanctuary; and the fruit thereof shall be for food, and the leaf thereof for healing.'
13Thus saith the Lord GOD: 'This shall be the border, whereby ye shall divide the land for inheritance accord- ing to the twelve tribes of Israel, Joseph receiving two portions. 14And ye shall inherit it, one as well as anoth- er, concerning which I lifted up My hand to give it unto your fathers; and this land shall fall unto you for inher- itance. 15And this shall be the border of the land: on the north side, from the Great Sea, by the way of Hethlon, unto the entrance of Zedad; 16Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazer-hatticon, which is by tie border of Hauran. 17And the border from the sea shall be Hazar-enon at the border of Damascus, and on the aorth northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side. 18And the east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of [srael, by the Jordan, from the border unto the east sea shall ye measure. This is the east side. 19And the south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth- cadesh, to the Brook, unto the Great Sea. This is the south side southward. °And the west side shall be the Great Sea, from the border as far as over EZEKIEL against the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
^So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel. ^And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you and to the strangers that sojourn among you, who shall beget ' children among you; and they shall be unto you as the home-born among the children of Israel; they shall have in- heritance with you among the tribes of Israel. ^And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourn- eth, there shall ye give him his inher- itance, saith the Lord GOD. A Q Now these are the names of the tribes: from the north end, be- side the way of Hethlontothe entrance of Hamath, Hazar-enan, at the border of Damascus, northward, beside Ha- math; and they shall have their sides east and west: Dan, one portion. 2And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the west side: Asher, one portion. 3And by the border of Asher, from the east side even unto the west side: Naphtali, one portion. 4And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side unto the west side. Manasseh, one portion. 5And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side unto the west side: Ephraim, one portion. 6And by the border of Ephra- im, from the east side even unto the west side: Reuben, one portion. 7And by the border of Reuben, from the east side unto the west side- Judah, one portion 8And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the offering which ye shall set aside, five and twenty thousand reeds in breadth, and in length as one of the portions, from the east side unto the west side; and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it. 9The offering that ye shall set apart unto the LORD shall be five and twenty thousand reeds in length, and ten thousand in breadth. 10And for these, even for the priests, shall be the holy offering; toward the north five and twenty thousand [in length], and toward the west ten thousand in breadth, and toward the east ten thousand in breadth, and to- ward the south five and twenty thou- sand in length; and the sanctuary of the LORD shall be in the midst thereof. nThe sanctified portion shall be for the priests of the sons of Zadok, that have kept My charge, that went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites' went astray. 12And it shall be unto them a portion set apart from the offering of the land, a thing most holy, by the border of the Levites. 13And answer- able unto the border of the priests, the Levites shall have five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth; all the length shall be five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand. 14And they shall not sell of it, nor exchange, nor alienate the first portion of the land; for it is holy unto the LORD.
"And the five thousand that are left in the breadth, in front of the five and twenty thousand, shall be for com- mon use, for the city, for dwelling and for open land; and the city shall be in the midst thereof. 16And these shall be the measures thereof- the north side four thousand and five hundred, and the south side four thousand and five hundred, and on the east side four .thousand and five hundred, and the west side four thousand and five hundred. 17And the city shall have open land: toward the north two hundred and fifty, and 'toward the south two hundred and fifty, and to- ward the east two hundred and fifty, EZEKTEL and toward the west two hundred and fifty. 18And the residue in the length, answerable unto the holy offering, shall be ten thousand eastward, and ten thousand westward; and it shall be answerable unto the holy offering; and the increase thereof shall be for food unto them that serve the city. 19And they that serve the city, out of all the tribes of Israel, shafi till it. 20A11 the offering shall be five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand; ye shall set apart the holy offering foursquare, with the posses- sion of the city.
^And the residue shall be for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy offering and of the posses- sion of the city, in front of the five and twenty thousand of the offering to- ward the east border, and westward in front of the five and twenty thou- sand toward the west border, answer- able unto the portions, it shall be for the prince; and the holy offering and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof. 22Thus the pos- session of the Levites, and the pos- session of the city, shall be in the midst of that which is the prince's; between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin shall be the prince's.
^And as for the rest of the tribes: from the east side unto the west side: Benjamin, one portion. ^And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west side: Simeon, one portion. 26And by the border of from the east side unto the west side: Issachar, one portion. 26And by the border of Issachar, from the east side unto the west side: Zebu- lun, one portion. 27And by the border of Zebulun, from the east side unto the west side: Gad, one portion. 28And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border shall be even from Tamar unto the waters of Meribath-kadesh, to the Brook, untp the Great Sea. 29This is the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these are their portions, saith the Lord GOD.
30And these are the goings out of the city: on the north side four thousand and five hundred reeds by measure; 31and the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel; three gates northward: the gate of Reuben, one; the gate of Judah, one; the gate of Levi, one; 32and at the east side four thousand and five hundred reeds; and three gates: even the gate of Joseph, one; the gate of Benjamin, one; the gate of Dan, one; 33and at the south side four thousand and five hundred reeds by measure; and three : the gate of Simeon, one; the ite of Issachar, one; the gate of ^ebulun, one; 34at the west side four thousand and five hundred reeds, with their three gates: the gate of Gad, one; the gate of Asher, one; the gate of Naphtali, one. 35It shall be eighteen thousand reeds round about. And the name of the city from that day shall be, The LORD is there/ yen HOSEA 1 THE word of the LORD that came •^ unto Hosea the son of Been, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the iays of Jeroboam the son of Joash, dng of Israel.
2When the LORD spoke at first with Hosea, the LORD said unto Hosea: Go, take unto thee a wife of har- otry and children of harlotry; for the and doth commit great harlotry, de- Darting from the LORD/ 3So he went md took Gomer the daughter of Dib- aim; and she conceived, and bore tim a son. 4And the LORD said unto lim: 'Call his name Jezreel; for yet i little while, and I will visit the Dlood of Jezreel upon the house of fehu, and will cause to cease the king- lorn of the house of Israel. 5And it jhaU come to pass at that day, that [ will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.' 6And she conceived igain, and bore a daughter. And le said unto him: 'Call her name lLo-ruhamah; for I will no more have jompassion upon the house of Israel, ,hat I should in any wise pardon ,hem. 7But I will have compassion ipon the house of Judah, and will save them by the LORD their God, ind will not save them by bow, nor by iword, nor by battle, nor by horses, lor by horsemen.7 8Now when she lad weaned Lo-ruhamah, she con- served, and bore a son. 9And He said: 'Call his name bLo-ammi; for ye ire not My people, and I will not be rours/ Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the * That is, That hath not obtained compassion * That is, Not My people. d That is, That hath obtained compassion.
2 sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass that, instead of that which was said unto them: 'Ye are not My people', it shall be said unto them: Ye are the children of the living God.' 2And the children of Judah and the children of Israel shall be gathered together, and they shall appoint themselves one head, and shall go up out of the land; for great shall be the day of Jezreel. 3Say ye unto your brethren: 'cAmmi'; and to your sisters: 'dRuha- mah.'
4Plead with your mother, plead; For she is not My wife, neither am I her husband; And let her put away her harlotries from her face, And her adulteries from between her breasts; 6Lest I strip her naked, And set her as in the day that she was born, And make her as a wilderness, And set her like a dry land, And slay her with thirst. 6And I will not have compassion upon her children; For they are children of harlotry. 7For their mother hath played the harlot, She that conceived them hath done shamefully; For she said: 'I will go after my lovers, That is, My people.
HOSEA That give me my bread and my water, My wool and my flax, mine oil anc my drink/ therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, And I will make a wall againsl her, That she shall not find her paths. 9And she sha.11 run after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them. And she shall seek them, but shal!
not find them; Then shall she say: 'I will go and return to my first husband; For then was it better with me than now.' 10For she did not know that it was I that gave her The corn, and the wine, and the oil, And multiplied unto her silver and gold, Which they used for Baal. llTherefore will I take back My corn in the time thereof, And My wine in the season thereof, And will snatch away My wool and My flax Given to coyer her nakedness. 12And now will I uncover her shame in the sight of her lovers, And none shall deliver her out of My hand. 13I will also cause all her mirth to cease, Her feasts, her new moons, and her sabbaths, And all her appointed seasons. 14And I will lay waste her vines and her fig-trees, Whereof she hath said: 'These are my hire That my lovers have given me'; And I will make them a forest, And the beasts of the field shall eat them.
* That is, Troubling.
b That is, My husband.
15And I will visit upon her the days of the Baalim, Wherein she offered unto them, And decked herself with her ear- rings and her jewels, And went after her lovers, And forgot Me, saith the LORD. "Therefore, behold, I will allure her, 'And bring her into the wilderness, And speak tenderly unto her. 17And I will give her her vineyards from thence, And the valley of aAchor for a door of hope; And she shall respond there, as in the days of her youth, And as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
18And it shall be at that day, saith the LORD, That thou shalt call Me blshi, And shalt call Me no more cBaali.
19For I will take away the names of the Baalim out of her mouth, And they shall no more be men- tioned by their name. 20And in that day will I make a cove- nant for them With the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, And with the creeping things of the ground; And I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the land, And will make them to lie down safely.
21 And I will betroth thee unto Me for ever; Yea, I will betroth thee unto Me in righteousness, and in justice, And in lovingkindness, and in com- passion.
22And I will betroth thee unto Me in faithfulness; And thou shalt know the LORD.
That is, My master.
HOSEA 23 And it shall come to pass in that day, I will respond, saith the LOED, I will respond to the heavens, And they shall respond to the earth; ^And the earth shall respond to the corn, and the wine, and the oil; And they shall respond to aJezreel.
25And I will sow her unto Me m the land; And I will have compassion upon her that had not obtained com- passion; And I will say to them that were not My people: 'Thou art My people'; And they shall say: 'Thou art my God/ O And the LORD said unto me: 'Go yet, love a wojman beloved of her friend and an adulteress, even as the LORD loveth the children of Israel, though they turn unto other gods, and love cakes of raisins.' 2So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver and a homer of barley, and a half-homer of barley; 3and I said unto her: 'Thou shalt sit solitary for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be any man's wife; nor will I be thine.' 4For the children of "Israel shall sit solitary many days without king, and without prince, and without sacrifice, and without pillar, and without ephod or teraphim; After- ward shall the children of Israel re- turn, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall come trembling unto the LORD and to His goodness in the end of days.
A Hear the word of the LORD, ye -1- children of Israel! For the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, Because there is no truth, nor mercy, Nor knowledge of God in the land. 2Swearing and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery! They break all bounds, and blood toucheth blood.
therefore doth the land mourn, And every one that dwelleth therein doth languish, With the beasts of the field and the fowls of heaven; Yea, the fishes of the sea also are taken away.
4Yet let no man strive, neither let any man reprove; For thy people are as they that stnve with the priest. 5Theref ore shalt thou stumble in the day, And the prophet also shall stumble with thee in the night; And I will destroy thy mother. 6My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; Because thou hast rejected knowl- ) rej ect thee, that thou shalt be no priest to Me; Seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I also will forget thy children.
7The more they were increased, the more they sinned against Me; I will change their glory into shame. 8They feed on the sin of My people, And set their heart on their iniquity. 9And it is like people, like priest; And I will punish him for his ways, And will recompense him his doings. 10 And they shall eat, and not have enough, They shall commit harlotry, and shall not increase; Because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.
» That is, Whom God tovoeth.
HOSEA "Harlotry, wine, and new wine take away the heart. 12My people ask counsel at their stock, And their staff declareth unto them; For the spirit of harlotry hath caused them to err, And they have gone astray from under their God.
13They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, And offer upon the hills, Under oaks and poplars and tere- binths, Because the shadow thereof is good; Therefore your daughters commit harlotry, And your daughters-in-law commit adultery.
14I will not punish your daughters when they commit harlotry, Nor your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery;.
For they themselves consort with lewd women, And they sacrifice with harlots; And the people that is without un- derstanding is distraught.
16Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, Yet let not Judah become guilty; And come not ye unto Gilgal, Neither go ye up to Beth-aven, Nor swear: 'As the LORD liveth.' 16For Israel is stubborn like a stub- born heifer; Now shall the LORD feed them as a lamb in a large place? 17Ephraim is joined to idols; Let him alone. 18When their carouse is over, They take to harlotry; Her rulers deeply love dishonour. 19The wind hath bound her up in her skirts; And they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
£ Hear this, O ye priests, And attend, ye house of Israel, And give ear, 0 house of the king, For unto you pertaineth the judg- ment; For ye have been a snare on Mizpah, And a net spread upon Tabor. 2And they that fall away are gone deep in making slaughter; And I am, rejected of them all. 3I, even I, know Ephraim, And Israel is not hid from Me; For now, O Ephraim, thou hast committed harlotry, Israel is defiled.
4Their doings will not suffer them To return unto their God; For the spirit of harlotry is within them, And they know not the LORD. fiBut the pride of Israel shall testify to his face; And Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity, Judah also shall stumble with them 6With their flocks and with their herds they shall go To seek the LORD, but they shall not find Him; He hath withdrawn Himself from them. 7They have dealt treacherously against the LORD, For they have begotten strange children; Now shall the new moon devour them with their portions.
8Blow ye the horn in Gibeah, And the trumpet in Ramah; Sound an alarm at Beth-aven: 'Behind thee, O Benjamin,!' 9Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke; Among the tribes of Israel do I make known that which shall surely be.
HOSEA 10The princes of Judah are like them that remove the landmark; I mil pour out My wrath upon them like water. "Oppressed is Ephraim, crushed in his right; Because he willingly walked after filth. "Therefore am I unto Ephraim as a moth, And to the house of Judah as rotten- ness.
18 And when Ephraim saw his sick- ness, And Judah his wound, Ephraim went to Assyria, And sent to King Contentious; But he is not able to heal you, Neither shall he cure you of your wound. 14For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, And as a young lion to the house of Judah; I, even I, will tear and go away, I will take away, and there shall be none to deliver.
15I will go and return to My place, Till they acknowledge their guilt, and seek My face; In their trouble they will seek Me earnestly: fVCome, and let us return unto the For He hath torn, and He will heal us, He hath smitten, and He will bind us up.
2After two days will He revive us, On the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His presence. 3And let us know, eagerly strive to know the LOED, His going forth is sure as the morn- ing; And He shall come unto us as the rain, As the latter rain that watereth the earth.'
40 Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee?
0 Judah, what shall I do unto thee? For your goodness is as a morning cloud, And as the dew that early passeth away, therefore have I hewed them by the prophets, 1 have slain them by the words of My mouth; And thy judgment goeth forth as the light.
6For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, And the knowledge of God rather than burnt-offerings.
7But they like men have transgressed the covenant; There have they dealt treacherously against Me. 8Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, It is covered with footprints of blood. 9And as troops of robbers wait for a man, So doth the company of priests; They murder in the way toward Shechem; Yea, they commit enormity. 10In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing; There harlotry is found in Ephraim, Israel is defiled. 11 Also, 0 Judah, there is a harvest appointed for thee!
When I would turn the captivity of My people, 17 When I would heal Israel, 1 Then is the iniquity of Ephraim uncovered, And the wickedness of Samaria, For they commit falsehood; HOSEA And the thief entereth in, And the troop of robbers maketh a raid without. 2And let them not say to their heart — I remember all their wickedness, Now their own doings have beset them about, They are before My face. 3They make the king glad with their wickedness, And the princes with their lies, ^hey are all adulterers, As an oven heated by the baker, Who ceaseth to stir From the kneading of the dough until it be leavened. 50n the day of our king The princes make him sick with the heat of wine, He stretcheth out his hand with scorners. 6For they have made ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait; Their baker sleepeth all the night, In the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
7They are all hot as an oven, And devour their judges; All their kings are fallen, There is none among them that calleth unto Me.
8Ephraim, he mixeth himself with the peoples; Ephraim is become a cake not turned. » 9Strangers have devoured his strength, And he knoweth it not; Yea, gray hairs are here and there upon Mm, And he knoweth it not. 10And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face; But they have not returned unto the LORD their God, Nor sought Hun, for all this. 11 And Ephraim is become like a silly dove, without understanding; They call unto Egypt, they go to Assyria. 12Even as they go, I will spread My net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their con- gregation hath been made to hear. 13Woe unto them! for they have strayed from Me; Destruction unto them! for they have transgressed against Me; Shall I then redeem them. Seeing they have spoken lies against Me? 14And they have not cried unto Me with their heart, Though they wail upon their beds; They assemble themselves for corn and wine, they rebel against Me. 15Though I have trained and strength- ened their arms, Yet do they devise evil against Me. 16They return, but not upwards; They are become like a deceitful bow; Their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue; This shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
Q Set the horn to thy mouth.
As a vulture he cometh against the house of the LORD; Because they have transgressed My covenant, And trespassed against My law. 2Will they cry unto Me: 'My God, we Israel know Thee'? 3Israel hath east off that which is good; The enemy shall pursue him. 4They have set up kings, but not from Me, HOSEA They have made princes, and I knew it not; Of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, That they may be cut off. 5Thy calf, O Samaria, is cast off; Mine anger is kindled against them; How long will it be ere they attain to innocency?
6For from Israel is even this: The craftsman made it, and it is no God; Yea, the calf of Samaria shall be
