Hear this word which Jehovah spake against you, ye sons of Israel, against all the family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,

For the Lord Jehovah will not do a word but he will uncover his secret to his servants the prophets.

Hear this word, ye heifers of Bashan, which are upon the mountain of Shomeron, oppressing the poor, breaking in pieces the needy, saying to their lords, Bring, and we will drink.

Hear ye this word which I lift up to you, a lamentation, O house of Israel.

They hated him setting right in the gate, and they will abhor the perfect word.

Rejoicing to no word, saying, Did we not take horns by our strength?

And now hear the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest thou shalt not prophesy against Israel, and thou shalt not drop against the house of Isaak.

And they wandered from sea even to sea, and from the north and even to the sunrising, they shall run up and down to seek the word of Jehovah and they shall not find.
