Yahweh’s Judgment on Idolatrous Israel
- he was exalted in Israel,
- but he incurred guilt through Baal and died.
- 2 and they make for themselves a molten idol,
- idols from their silver metal according to their understanding,
- all of them the work of skilled craftsmen.
- To these they say, “Sacrifice!”
- People are kissing bull calves.
- 3 and like the dew of early morning going away,
- like chaff swirling from the threshing floor,
- or like smoke from a window.
- 4 am Yahweh your God since[fn] the land of Egypt;
- you know no god except me,
- and no one saves besides me.
- 5 [fn] in the desert, in the land of drought.
- 6 [fn] they were satisfied; they were satisfied and their heart was lifted up;
- therefore they forgot me.
- 7 I lie in wait beside the way, like a leopard.
- 8 and I will tear open the covering of their heart;
- there I will devour them like a lion,
- like an animal of the field would mutilate them.
- 9 [fn] O Israel; who will help you?[fn]
- 10 is your king that he may save you? Where in all your cities are your judges,
- of whom you said, “Give to
- me a king and rulers?”
- 11 and I took him in my wrath.
- 12 is wrapped up; his sin is concealed.
- 13 he is an unwise son
- because at the proper time, he does not present himself
- [fn]
- 14 [fn] of Sheol?[fn] Should I deliver them from death?
- Where are your plagues, O Death?
- Where is your destruction, O Sheol?[fn]
- Compassion is hidden from my eyes.
- 15 [fn] the east wind will come, a wind of Yahweh
- his fountain will dry up,
- his spring will be parched.
- It will plunder his treasury,[fn]
- [fn] Samaria will be guilty,
- because she has rebelled against her God;
- they will fall by the sword,
- their children will be dashed to pieces,
- and their pregnant women will be ripped open.
