Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,

Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.

And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven, and proclaim and publish the free offerings: for this liketh you, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: and because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.

Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.

The LORD repented for this: It shall not be, saith the LORD.

The LORD repented for this: This also shall not be, saith the Lord GOD.

Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,

Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this.
