CHAP. II.
The judgments with which God
threatens Moab, Juda, and
Israel for their sins, and
their ingratitude.
1 Thus saith the Lord:
For three crimes of
Moab, and for four I will
not convert him: because he
hath burnt the bones of
the king of Edom even to
ashes.
2 And I will send a fire
into Moab, and it shall devour
the houses of Carioth:
and Moab shall die with a
noise, with the sound of the
trumpet:
3 And I will cut off the
judge from the midst thereof,
and will slay all his
princes with him, saith the
Lord.
4 Thus saith the Lord:
For three crimes of Juda,
and for four I will not convert
him: because he hath
cast away the law of the
Lord, and hath not kept
his commandments: for their
idols have caused them to
err, after which their fathers
have walked.
5 And I will send a fire
into Juda, and it shall devour
the houses of Jerusalem.
6 Thus saith the Lord:
For three crimes of Israel,
and for four I will not convert
him: because he hath
sold the just man for silver,
and the poor man for a pair
of shoes.
7 They bruise the heads
of the poor upon the dust
of the earth, and turn aside
the way of the humble: and
the son and his father have
gone to the same young woman,
to profane my holy
name.
8 And they sat down upon
garments laid to pledge
by every altar: and drank
the wine of the condemned
in the house of their God.
9 Yet I cast out the Amorrhite
before their face:
whose height was like the
height of cedars, and who
was strong as an oak: and
-- --
I destroyed his fruit from
above, and his roots beneath.
10 It is I that brought
you up out of the land of
Egypt, and I led you forty
years through the wilderness,
that you might possess the
land of the Amorrhite.
11 And I raised up of
your sons for prophets, and
of your young men for Nazarites.
Is it not so, O ye
children of Israel, saith the
Lord?
12 And you will present
wine to the Nazarites: and
command the prophets, saying:
Prophesy not.
13 Behold, note I will
screek under you, as a wain
screeketh that is laden with
hay.
14 And flight shall perish
from the swift, and the valiant
shall not possess his
strength, neither shall the
strong save his life.
15 And he that holdeth
the bow shall not stand, and
the swift of foot shall not
escape, neither shall the rider
of the horse save his life.
16 And the stout of heart
among the valiant shall flee
away naked in that day,
saith the Lord.
