God’s Punishments Have Not Reformed Israel

4Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, Who oppress the poor, Who crush the needy, Who say to your husbands, "Bring wine, let us drink!"H8085H1697H6510H1316H2022H8111H6231H1800H7533H34H559H113H935H8354 2The Lord GOD has sworn by His holiness: "Behold, the days shall come upon you When He will take you away with fishhooks, And your posterity with fishhooks.H136H3069H7650H6944H3117H935H5375H6793H319H1729H5518 3You will go out through broken walls, Each one straight ahead of her, And you will be cast into Harmon," Says the LORD.H3318H6556H802H7993H2038H5002H3068 4"Come to Bethel and transgress, At Gilgal multiply transgression; Bring your sacrifices every morning, Your tithes every three days.H935H1008H6586H1537H7235H6586H935H2077H1242H4643H7969H3117 5Offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven, Proclaim and announce the freewill offerings; For this you love, You children of Israel!" Says the Lord GOD.H6999H8426H2557H7121H8085H5071H3651H157H1121H3478H5002H136H3069

Israel Did Not Accept Correction

6"Also I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities. And lack of bread in all your places; Yet you have not returned to Me," Says the LORD.H5414H5356H8127H5892H2640H3899H4725H7725H5002H3068 7"I also withheld rain from you, When there were still three months to the harvest. I made it rain on one city, I withheld rain from another city. One part was rained upon, And where it did not rain the part withered.H4513H1653H7969H2320H7105H4305H259H5892H4305H259H5892H259H2513H4305H2513H4305H3001 8So two or three cities wandered to another city to drink water, But they were not satisfied; Yet you have not returned to Me," Says the LORD.H8147H7969H5892H5128H259H5892H8354H4325H7646H7725H5002H3068 9"I blasted you with blight and mildew. When your gardens increased, Your vineyards, Your fig trees, And your olive trees, The locust devoured them; Yet you have not returned to Me," Says the LORD.H5221H7711H3420H1593H3754H8384H2132H7235H1501H398H7725H5002H3068 10"I sent among you a plague after the manner of Egypt; Your young men I killed with a sword, Along with your captive horses; I made the stench of your camps come up into your nostrils; Yet you have not returned to Me," Says the LORD.H7971H1698H1870H4714H970H2026H2719H7628H5483H889H4264H5927H639H7725H5002H3068 11"I overthrew some of you, As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, And you were like a firebrand plucked from the burning; Yet you have not returned to Me," Says the LORD.H2015H430H4114H5467H6017H181H5337H8316H7725H5002H3068 12"Therefore thus will I do to you, O Israel; Because I will do this to you, Prepare to meet your God, O Israel!"H6213H3478H6118H6213H3559H7125H430H3478 13For behold, He who forms mountains, And creates the wind, Who declares to man what his thought is, And makes the morning darkness, Who treads the high places of the earth—The LORD God of hosts is His name.H3335H2022H1254H7307H5046H120H7808H6213H7837H5890H1869H1116H776H3068H430H6635H8034
