30:003:006 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and
the people not be
afraid?
shall there be evil in a city, and the lord hath
not
done
it?
30:003:007 Surely the Lord god will do nothing,
but he revealeth his
secret
unto his servants the prophets.
30:003:008 The lion hath roared, who will not fear?
the Lord god hath
spoken,
who can but prophesy?
30:003:009 Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in
the palaces in the
land
of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains
of
Samaria, and behold the great tumults in the midst
thereof,
and
the oppressed in the midst thereof.
30:003:010 For they know not to do right, saith the
lord, who store up
violence
and robbery in their palaces.
30:003:011 Therefore thus saith the Lord god;
An adversary there shall be
even
round about the land; and he shall bring down thy
strength
from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled.
30:003:012 Thus saith the lord; As the shepherd
taketh out of the mouth
of
the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the
children
of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the
corner
of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.
30:003:013 Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob,
saith the Lord
god,
the God of hosts,
30:003:014 That in the day that I shall visit the
transgressions of
Israel
upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel:
and
the
horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the
ground.
30:003:015 And I will smite the winter house with
the summer house; and
the
houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses
shall
have
an end, saith the lord.
30:004:001 Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that
are in the mountain of
Samaria,
which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which
say
to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.
30:004:002 The Lord god hath sworn by his holiness,
that, lo, the days
shall
come upon you, that he will take you away with hooks,
and
your posterity with fishhooks.
30:004:003 And ye shall go out at the breaches, every
cow at that which
is
before her; and ye shall cast them into the palace,
saith
the
lord.
30:004:004 Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal
multiply
transgression;
and bring your sacrifices every morning, and
your
tithes after three years:
30:004:005 And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with
leaven, and
proclaim
and publish the free offerings: for this liketh
you,
O
ye children of Israel, saith the Lord god.
