Therefore I will make Samaria like a heap in the field, and a place for planting of a vineyard: and I will pour down its stones into the valley, and I will uncover her foundations.

And all her graven images shall be beaten to pieces, and all her pay shall be burned with the fire, and all her idols will I lay desolate: for she gathered it from the pay of a harlot, and they shall return to the pay of a harlot.

For her wound is incurable; for it has come unto Judah; it has come unto the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.

Her heads judge for reward, and her priests teach for hire, and her prophets divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? no evil can come upon us.

Now also many nations are gathered against you, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.

For her rich men are full of violence, and her inhabitants have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.

Trust not in a friend, put not confidence in a companion: keep the doors of your mouth from her that lies in your bosom.

For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.

Then she that is my enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her who said unto me, Where is the LORD your God? my eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
