CHAP. IV.
1 He reproveth Israel for oppression, 4 for
idolatry, 6 and for their incorrigibleness.
1 Hear this word, ye heifers 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.
2 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 fish-hooks,
3 And ye shall go out at the breaches,
every cow at that which is before her;
and note ye shall cast them into the palace,
saith the Lord.
4 ¶2; Come to Beth-el and transgress; at
Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring
your sacrifices every morning, and your
tithes after note three years:
5 And note offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving
with leaven, and proclaim and publish
the free-offerings: for note this pleaseth
you, O ye children of Israel, saith the
Lord God.
6 ¶2; 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 to me, saith the Lord.
7 And also I have withheld 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 on which it
rained not withered.
8 So two or three cities wandered to
one city, to drink water; but they were
not satisfied: yet have ye not returned to
me, saith the Lord.
9 I have smitten you with blasting and
mildew: note when your gardens and your
vineyards and your fig-trees and your
olive-trees increased, the palmer-worm
devoured them: yet have ye not returned
to me, saith the Lord.
10 I have sent among you the pestilence
note after the manner of Egypt: your
young men have I slain with the sword,
note and have taken away your horses; and
I have made the ill savor of your camps
to come up to your nostrils: yet have ye
not returned to me, saith the Lord.
11 I have overthrown some of you, as
God overthrew note Sodom and Gomorrah,
and ye were as a fire-brand plucked out
of the burning: yet have ye not returned
to me, saith the Lord.
12 Therefore thus will I do to thee, O
Israel: and because I will do this to thee,
prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
13 For lo, he that formeth the mountains,
and createth the note wind, and declareth
to 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.
