4 Listen to this message, you women like the cows of Bashan on Shomron’s mountain—
you who oppress the poor,
“Bring us drinks.”
2 My master Yahweh has sworn by his own sinlessness saying,
“Listen, the time will come
when they’ll take you all away with hooks—
≈ the last of you with fish-hooks.
3 You’ll all be taken straight out through breaks in the city wall,
and you’ll be thrown out toward Harmon.
That is Yahweh’s declaration.”
4 “Go to the worship centre at Beyt-El and sin,
≈ to the one at Gilgal and multiply sin.
Bring your sacrifices every morning,
≈ your tithes every three days.
5 Offer a thanksgiving sacrifice with bread.
≈ Proclaim freewill offerings.
≈ Announce them,
because that pleases you, you Israelis.
That’s my master Yahweh’s declaration.
6 I also gave you empty stomachs in all your cities
and lack of bread in all your places.
Yet you all haven’t returned to me.
That is Yahweh’s declaration.
7 I also withheld rain from you
when there were still three months to the harvest.
I made it rain on one city,
and didn’t send rain to some another city.
One piece of land was rained on,
but the piece of land where he didn’t send rain, dried up.
8 People from two or three cities staggered to another city to drink water,
but still weren’t able to get enough.
Yet you all haven’t returned to me.
That is Yahweh’s declaration.
9 I ruined your crops with blight and mildew.
The multitude of your gardens and your vineyards,
your fig trees and your olive trees,
were all devastated by the locusts.
Yet you all haven’t returned to me.
That is Yahweh’s declaration.
10 I sent a plague on you similar to what I did in Egypt (Heb. Mitsrayim).
I killed your young men with the sword, carried away your horses,
and made the stench of your camp reach your noses.
Yet you all haven’t returned to me.
That is Yahweh’s declaration.
11 I overthrew cities among you, just like when God overthrew Sodom and Amorah (Gomorrah).[ref]
You were like a burning stick snatched out of the fire.
Yet you all haven’t returned to me.
That is Yahweh’s declaration.
12 Therefore I’ll do something terrible to you, Yisrael,
and because I’ll do something terrible to you,
prepare to meet your god, Yisrael.
13 Now listen. He who formed the mountains and created the wind
reveals his thoughts to humanity,
and walks around the highest places in this world.
