28:004:011 Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
28:004:012 My people ask counsel at their stocks,
and their staff
declareth
unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused
them
to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their
God.
28:004:013 They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains,
and burn
incense
upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms,
because
the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters
shall
commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery.
28:004:014 I will not punish your daughters when they
commit whoredom,
nor
your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves
are
separated
with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots:
therefore
the people that doth not understand shall fall.
28:004:015 Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet
let not Judah
offend;
and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to
Bethaven,
nor swear, The lord liveth.
28:004:016 For Israel slideth back as a backsliding
heifer: now the lord
will
feed them as a lamb in a large place.
28:004:017 Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
28:004:018 Their drink is sour: they have committed
whoredom continually:
her
rulers with shame do love, Give ye.
28:004:019 The wind hath bound her up in her wings,
and they shall be
ashamed
because of their sacrifices.
28:005:001 Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye
house of Israel; and
give
ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward
you,
because
ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon
Tabor.
28:005:002 And the revolters are profound to make
slaughter, though I
have
been a rebuker of them all.
28:005:003 I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from
me: for now, O
Ephraim,
thou committest whoredom, and Israel is defiled.
28:005:004 They will not frame their doings to turn
unto their God: for
the
spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they
have
not
known the lord.
28:005:005 And the pride of Israel doth testify to
his face: therefore
shall
Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity: Judah
also
shall
fall with them.
28:005:006 They shall go with their flocks and with
their herds to seek
the
lord; but they shall not find him; he hath withdrawn
himself
from them.
28:005:007 They have dealt treacherously against the
lord: for they have
begotten
strange children: now shall a month devour them
with
their
portions.
28:005:008 Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet
in Ramah: cry
aloud
at Bethaven, after thee, O Benjamin.
