1 "Put the shofar to your lips! Something like an eagle is over the LORD's house, Because they have broken my covenant, And rebelled against my law.

2 They cry to me, 'My God, we Yisra'el acknowledge you!'

3 Yisra'el 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 Shomron throw out his calf-idol! My anger burns against them! How long will it be before the are capable of purity?

6 For this is even from Yisra'el! The workman made it, and it is no God; Indeed, the calf of Shomron 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 Yisra'el is swallowed up. Now they are among the nations like a worthless thing.

9 For they have gone up to Ashshur, Like a wild donkey wandering alone. Efrayim 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 Efrayim 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 flesh and eat it; But the LORD doesn't accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, And punish their sins. They will return to Mitzrayim.

14 For Yisra'el has forgotten his Maker and built palaces; And Yehudah has multiplied fortified cities; But I will send a fire on his cities, And it will devour its fortresses."
