Israel is reproved and threatened for their impiety and idolatry.
10:1 ¶
Israel is a vine with goodly branches, her fruit is abundant: according to the multitude of her fruits she has multiplied [her] altars; according to the wealth of his land, he has set up pillars. |
|
10:1 ¶
Israel°
[is] an empty°°
vine,°
he bringeth forth°°
fruit°
unto himself: according to the multitude°
of his fruit°
he hath increased°°
the altars;°
according to the goodness°
of his land°
they have made goodly°°°
images.° |
10:2
They have divided their hearts; now shall they be utterly destroyed: he shall dig down their altars, their pillars shall mourn. |
|
10:2
Their heart°
is divided;°°
now°
shall they be found faulty:°°
he°
shall break down°°
their altars,°
he shall spoil°°
their images.° |
10:3
Because now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the Lord: |
|
10:3
For°
now°
they shall say,°°
We have no°
king,°
because°
we feared°°
not°°
Yahweh;°
what°
then should a king°
do°°
to us? |
10:4
and what should a king do for us, speaking false professions [as his] words? he will make a covenant: judgment shall spring up as a weed on the soil of the field. |
|
10:4
They have spoken°°
words,°
swearing°°
falsely°
in making°°
a covenant:°
thus judgment°
springeth up°°
as hemlock°
in°
the furrows°
of the field.° |
10:5
The inhabitants of Samaria shall dwell near the calf of the house of On; for the people of it mourned for it: and as they provoked him, they shall rejoice at his glory, because he has departed from them. |
|
10:5
The inhabitants°
of Samaria°
shall fear°°
because of the calves°
of Bethaven:°
for°
the people°
thereof shall mourn°°
over°
it, and the priests°
thereof [that] rejoiced°°
on°
it, for°
the glory°
thereof, because°
it is departed°°
from°
it. |
10:6
And having bound it for the Assyrians, they carried it away as presents to king Jarim: Ephraim shall receive a gift, and Israel shall be ashamed of his counsel. |
|
10:6
It shall be also°
carried°°
unto Assyria°
[for] a present°
to king°
Jareb:°
Ephraim°
shall receive°°
shame,°
and Israel°
shall be ashamed°°
of his own counsel.°° |
10:7
Samaria has cast off her king as a twig on the surface of the water. |
|
10:7
[As for] Samaria,°
her king°
is cut off°°
as the foam°
upon°°
the water.° |
10:8
And the altars of On, the sins of Israel, shall be taken away: thorns and thistles shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us. |
|
10:8
The high places°
also of Aven,°
the sin°
of Israel,°
shall be destroyed:°°
the thorn°
and the thistle°
shall come up°°
on°
their altars;°
and they shall say°°
to the mountains,°
Cover°°
us; and to the hills,°
Fall°°
on°
us. |
10:9
From the time the hills [existed] Israel has sinned: there they stood: war [waged] against the children of iniquity |
|
10:9
O Israel,°
thou hast sinned°°
from the days°°
of Gibeah:°
there°
they stood:°°
the battle°
in Gibeah°
against°
the children°
of iniquity°
did not°
overtake°°
them. |
10:10
to chastise them shall not overtake them on the hill, the nations shall be gathered against them, when they are chastened for their two sins, |
|
10:10
[It is] in my desire°
that I should chastise°°
them; and the people°
shall be gathered°°
against°
them, when they shall bind°°
themselves in their two°
furrows.° |
10:11
Ephraim is a heifer taught to love victory, but I will come upon the fairest part of her neck: I will mount Ephraim; I will pass over Judah{gr.Juda} in silence; Jacob shall prevail against him. |
|
10:11
And Ephraim°
[is as] an heifer°
[that is] taught,°°
[and] loveth°°
to tread out°°
[the corn]; but I°
passed over°°
upon°
her fair°
neck:°
I will make Ephraim°
to ride;°°
Judah°
shall plow,°°
[and] Jacob°
shall break his clods.°° |
10:12
Sow to yourselves for righteousness, gather in for the fruit of life: light ye for yourselves the light of knowledge; seek the Lord till the fruits of righteousness come upon you. |
|
10:12
Sow°°
to yourselves in righteousness,°
reap°°
in°
mercy;°
break up°°
your fallow ground:°
for [it is] time°
to seek°°°
Yahweh,°
till°
he come°°
and rain°°
righteousness°
upon you. |
10:13
Wherefore have ye passed over ungodliness in silence, and reaped the sins of it? ye have eaten false fruit; for thou has trusted in thy sins, in the abundance of thy power. |
|
10:13
Ye have plowed°°
wickedness,°
ye have reaped°°
iniquity;°
ye have eaten°°
the fruit°
of lies:°
because°
thou didst trust°°
in thy way,°
in the multitude°
of thy mighty men.° |
10:14
Therefore shall destruction rise up among thy people, and all thy strong places shall be ruined: as a prince Solomon [departed] out of the house of Jeroboam, in the days of battle they dashed the mother to the ground upon the children, |
|
10:14
Therefore shall a tumult°
arise°°
among thy people,°
and all°
thy fortresses°
shall be spoiled,°°
as Shalman°
spoiled°
Betharbel°
in the day°
of battle:°
the mother°
was dashed in pieces°°
upon°
[her] children.° |
10:15
thus will I do to you, O house of Israel, because of the unrighteousness of your sins. |
|
10:15
So°
shall Bethel°
do°°
unto you because°°
of your great°
wickedness:°
in a morning°
shall the king°
of Israel°
utterly°°
be cut off.°° |
