[1] “Put the trumpet to your lips!
Something like an eagle is over Yahweh’s house,
because they have broken my covenant
and rebelled against my law.
[2] They cry to me, ‘My God, we, Israel, acknowledge you!’
[3] Israel has cast off that which is good.
The enemy will pursue him.
[4] They have set up kings, but not by me.
They have made princes, and I didn’t approve.
Of their silver and their gold they have made themselves idols,
that they may be cut off.
[5] Let Samaria throw out his calf idol!
My anger burns against them!
How long will it be until they are capable of purity?
[6] For this is even from Israel!
The workman made it, and it is no God;
indeed, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
[7] For they sow the wind,
and they will reap the whirlwind.
He has no standing grain.
The stalk will yield no head.
If it does yield, strangers will swallow it up.
[8] Israel is swallowed up.
Now they are among the nations like a worthless thing.
[9] For they have gone up to Assyria,
like a wild donkey wandering alone.
Ephraim has hired lovers for himself.
[10] But although they sold themselves among the nations,
I will now gather them;
and they begin to waste away because of the oppression of the king of mighty ones.
[11] Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning,
they became for him altars for sinning.
[12] I wrote for him the many things of my law,
but they were regarded as a strange thing.
[13] As for the sacrifices of my offerings,
they sacrifice meat and eat it,
but Yahweh doesn’t accept them.
Now he will remember their iniquity,
and punish their sins.
They will return to Egypt.
[14] For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces;
and Judah has multiplied fortified cities;
but I will send a fire on his cities,
and it will devour its fortresses.”
King James Version

Reaping the Whirlwind

[1] Set the trumpet H7782 to thy mouth. H2441§ He shall come as an eagle H5404 against H5921 the house H1004 of the Lord, H3068 because they have transgressed H5674 my covenant, H1285 and trespassed H6586 against H5921 my law. H8451 [2] Israel H3478 shall cry H2199 unto me, My God, H430 we know H3045 thee. [3] Israel H3478 hath cast off H2186 the thing that is good: H2896 the enemy H341 shall pursue H7291 him. [4] They have set up kings, H4427 but not by me: they have made princes, H7786 and I knew H3045 it not: of their silver H3701 and their gold H2091 have they made H6213 them idols, H6091 that they may be cut off. H3772 [5] Thy calf, H5695 O Samaria, H8111 hath cast H2186 thee off; mine anger H639 is kindled H2734 against them: how long will it be ere H3808 they attain H3201 to innocency? H5356 [6] For H3588 from Israel H3478 was it also: the workman H2796 made H6213 it; therefore it is not God: H430 but the calf H5695 of Samaria H8111 shall be broken in pieces. H7616 [7] For H3588 they have sown H2232 the wind, H7307 and they shall reap H7114 the whirlwind: H5492 it hath no stalk: H7054§ the bud H6780 shall yield H6213 no meal: H7058 if H194 so be it yield, H6213 the strangers H2114 shall swallow it up. H1104 [8] Israel H3478 is swallowed up: H1104 now H6258 shall they be among the Gentiles H1471 as a vessel H3627 wherein is no pleasure. H2656 [9] For H3588 they are gone up H5927 to Assyria, H804 a wild ass H6501 alone H909 by himself: Ephraim H669 hath hired H8566 lovers. H158§ [10] Yea, though they have hired H8566 among the nations, H1471 now H6258 will I gather H6908 them, and they shall sorrow H2490§ a little H4592 for H3588 the burden H4853 of the king H4428 of princes. H8269 [11] Because H3588 Ephraim H669 hath made many H7235 altars H4196 to sin, H2398 altars H4196 shall be unto him to sin. H2398 [12] I have written H3789 to him the great things H7230 H7239 of my law, H8451 but they were counted H2803 as a strange thing. H2114 [13] They sacrifice H2076 flesh H1320 for the sacrifices H2077 of mine offerings, H1890 and eat H398 it; but the Lord H3068 accepteth H7521 them not; now will he remember H2142 their iniquity, H5771 and visit H6485 their sins: H2403 they shall return H7725 to Egypt. H4714 [14] For Israel H3478 hath forgotten H7911 H853 his Maker, H6213 and buildeth H1129 temples; H1964 and Judah H3063 hath multiplied H7235 fenced H1219 cities: H5892 but I will send H7971 a fire H784 upon his cities, H5892 and it shall devour H398 the palaces H759 thereof.

[1] Εἰς G1519 κόλπον G2859 αὐτῶν G846 ὡς G5613 γῆ, G1093 ὡς G5613 ἀετὸς G105 ἐπ’ G1909 οἶκον G3624 κυρίου, G2962 ἀνθ’ G473 ὧν G3739 παρέβησαν G3845 τὴν G3588 διαθήκην G1242 μου G3450 καὶ G2532 κατὰ G2596 τοῦ G3588 νόμου G3551 μου G3450 ἠσέβησαν. G764 [2] Ἐμὲ G1691 κεκράξονται G2896 Ὁ G3588 θεός, G2316 ἐγνώκαμέν G1097 σε. G4571 [3] Ὅτι G3754 Ισραηλ G2474 ἀπεστρέψατο G654 ἀγαθά, G18 ἐχθρὸν G2190 κατεδίωξαν. G2614 [4] Ἑαυτοῖς G1438 ἐβασίλευσαν G936 καὶ G2532 οὐ G3756 δι’ G1223 ἐμοῦ, G1699 ἦρξαν G757 καὶ G2532 οὐκ G3756 ἐγνώρισάν G1107 μοι· G3427 τὸ G3588 ἀργύριον G694 αὐτῶν G846 καὶ G2532 τὸ G3588 χρυσίον G5553 αὐτῶν G846 ἐποίησαν G4160 ἑαυτοῖς G1438 εἴδωλα, G1497 ὅπως G3704 ἐξολεθρευθῶσιν. G1842 [5] Ἀπότριψαι τὸν G3588 μόσχον G3448 σου, G4675 Σαμάρεια· G4540 παρωξύνθη G3947 ὁ G3588 θυμός G2372 μου G3450 ἐπ’ G1909 αὐτούς· G846 ἕως G2193 τίνος G5101 οὐ G3756 μὴ G3361 δύνωνται G1410 καθαρισθῆναι G2511 [6] ἐν G1722 τῷ G3588 Ισραηλ; G2474 Καὶ G2532 αὐτὸ G846 τέκτων G5045 ἐποίησεν, G4160 καὶ G2532 οὐ G3756 θεός G2316 ἐστιν· G2076 διότι G1360 πλανῶν G4105 ἦν G2258 ὁ G3588 μόσχος G3448 σου, G4675 Σαμάρεια. G4540 [7] Ὅτι G3754 ἀνεμόφθορα ἔσπειραν, G4687 καὶ G2532 ἡ G3588 καταστροφὴ G2692 αὐτῶν G846 ἐκδέξεται G1551 αὐτά· G846 δράγμα οὐκ G3756 ἔχον G2192 ἰσχὺν G2479 τοῦ G3588 ποιῆσαι G4160 ἄλευρον· G224 ἐὰν G1437 δὲ G1161 καὶ G2532 ποιήσῃ, G4160 ἀλλότριοι G245 καταφάγονται G2719 αὐτό. G846 [8] Κατεπόθη G2666 Ισραηλ, G2474 νῦν G3568 ἐγένετο G1096 ἐν G1722 τοῖς G3588 ἔθνεσιν G1484 ὡς G5613 σκεῦος G4632 ἄχρηστον. G890 [9] Ὅτι G3754 αὐτοὶ G846 ἀνέβησαν G305 εἰς G1519 Ἀσσυρίους· ἀνέθαλεν G330 καθ’ G2596 ἑαυτὸν G1438 Εφραιμ, G2187 δῶρα G1435 ἠγάπησαν· G25 [10] διὰ G1223 τοῦτο G5124 παραδοθήσονται G3860 ἐν G1722 τοῖς G3588 ἔθνεσιν. G1484 Νῦν G3568 εἰσδέξομαι G1523 αὐτούς, G846 καὶ G2532 κοπάσουσιν G2869 μικρὸν τοῦ G3588 χρίειν G5548 βασιλέα G935 καὶ G2532 ἄρχοντας. G758 [11] Ὅτι G3754 ἐπλήθυνεν G4129 Εφραιμ G2187 θυσιαστήρια, G2379 εἰς G1519 ἁμαρτίας G266 ἐγένοντο G1096 αὐτῷ G846 θυσιαστήρια G2379 ἠγαπημένα. G25 [12] Καταγράψω αὐτῷ G846 πλῆθος G4128 καὶ G2532 τὰ G3588 νόμιμα αὐτοῦ, G846 εἰς G1519 ἀλλότρια G245 ἐλογίσθησαν G3049 θυσιαστήρια G2379 τὰ G3588 ἠγαπημένα. G25 [13] Διότι G1360 ἐὰν G1437 θύσωσιν G2380 θυσίαν G2378 καὶ G2532 φάγωσιν G5315 κρέα, G2907 κύριος G2962 οὐ G3756 προσδέξεται G4327 αὐτά· G846 νῦν G3568 μνησθήσεται τὰς G3588 ἀδικίας G93 αὐτῶν G846 καὶ G2532 ἐκδικήσει G1556 τὰς G3588 ἁμαρτίας G266 αὐτῶν· G846 αὐτοὶ G846 εἰς G1519 Αἴγυπτον G125 ἀπέστρεψαν G654 καὶ G2532 ἐν G1722 Ἀσσυρίοις ἀκάθαρτα G169 φάγονται. G5315 [14] Καὶ G2532 ἐπελάθετο G1950 Ισραηλ G2474 τοῦ G3588 ποιήσαντος G4160 αὐτὸν G846 καὶ G2532 ᾠκοδόμησαν G3618 τεμένη, καὶ G2532 Ιουδας G2455 ἐπλήθυνεν G4129 πόλεις G4172 τετειχισμένας· καὶ G2532 ἐξαποστελῶ G1821 πῦρ G4442 εἰς G1519 τὰς G3588 πόλεις G4172 αὐτοῦ, G846 καὶ G2532 καταφάγεται G2719 τὰ G3588 θεμέλια G2310 αὐτῶν.
