Israel Rejects The Good

5 He hath cast away thy calf, O Samaria, kindled is mine anger upon them, - How long shall they not endure to be innocent? 6 For, of Israel, is even that thing! A craftsman, made it, and, a No-god, it is! For, into fragments, shall the Calf of Samaria be broken. 7 For, to the wind, they sow, and, to the whirlwind, they reap: stalk, hath it none, That which shooteth forth, shall yield no meal, If so be it yield, foreigners, swallow it lip,
