30:004:006 And I also have given you cleanness of
teeth in all your
cities,
and want of bread in all your places: yet have
ye not
returned
unto me, saith the lord.
30:004:007 And also I have withholden the rain from
you, when there were
yet
three months to the harvest: and I caused it to
rain upon
one
city, and caused it not to rain upon another city:
one
piece
was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained
not
withered.
30:004:008 So two or three cities wandered unto one
city, to drink water;
but
they were not satisfied: yet have ye not returned
unto me,
saith
the lord.
30:004:009 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew:
when your gardens
and
your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees
increased,
the palmerworm devoured them: yet have ye not
returned
unto me, saith the lord.
30:004:010 I have sent among you the pestilence after
the manner of
Egypt:
your young men have I slain with the sword, and have
taken
away your horses; and I have made the stink of your
camps
to come up unto your nostrils: yet have ye not
returned
unto
me, saith the lord.
30:004:011 I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew
Sodom and
Gomorrah,
and ye were as a firebrand plucked out of the
burning:
yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the lord.
30:004:012 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel:
and because I
will
do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
30:004:013 For, lo, he that formeth the mountains,
and createth the wind,
and
declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh
the
morning
darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the
earth,
The lord, The God of hosts, is his name.
30:005:001 Hear ye this word which I take up against
you, even a
lamentation,
O house of Israel.
30:005:002 The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall
no more rise: she is
forsaken
upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
30:005:003 For thus saith the Lord god; The city
that went out by a
thousand
shall leave an hundred, and that which went forth by
an
hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.
30:005:004 For thus saith the lord unto the house
of Israel, Seek ye me,
and
ye shall live:
30:005:005 But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal,
and pass not to
Beersheba:
for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and
Bethel
shall come to nought.
30:005:006 Seek the lord, and ye shall live;
lest he break out like fire
in
the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none
to
quench
it in Bethel.
