Israel Has Not Retuned to God
1
Hear this word, you cows of Bashan on Mount Samaria,
you women who oppress the poor and crush the needy
and say to your husbands, "Bring us some drinks!"
2
The Sovereign LORD has sworn by his holiness:
"The time will surely come when you will be taken away with hooks,
the last of you with fishhooks.
3
You will each go straight out through breaks in the wall,
and you will be cast out toward Harmon," declares the LORD.

He who forms the mountains, creates the wind,
and reveals his thoughts to man, he who turns dawn to darkness,
and treads the high places of the earth
- the LORD God Almighty is his name.
