The Apostasy of Israel
8"Set the trumpet to your mouth! He shall come like an eagle against the house of the LORD, Because they have transgressed My covenant And rebelled against My law.H77822Israel will cry to Me, 'My God, we know You!'H3478H2199H430H3045
3Israel has rejected the good; The enemy will pursue him.H3478H2186H2896H341H7291
4"They set up kings, but not by Me; They made princes, but I did not acknowledge them. From their silver and gold They made idols for themselves—That they might be cut off.H4427H7786H3045H3701H2091H6213H6091H3772
5Your calf is rejected, O Samaria! My anger is aroused against them—How long until they attain to innocence?H5695H8111H2186H639H2734H3808H3201H5356
6For from Israel is even this: A workman made it, and it is not God; But the calf of Samaria shall be broken to pieces.H3478H2796H6213H430H5695H8111H7616
7"They sow the wind, And reap the whirlwind. The stalk has no bud; It shall never produce meal. If it should produce, Aliens would swallow it up.H2232H7307H7114H5492H7054H6780H6213H7058H194H6213H2114H1104
8Israel is swallowed up; Now they are among the Gentiles Like a vessel in which is no pleasure.H3478H1104H1471H3627H2656
9For they have gone up to Assyria, Like a wild donkey alone by itself; Ephraim has hired lovers.H5927H804H6501H909H669H8566H158
10Yes, though they have hired among the nations, Now I will gather them; And they shall sorrow a little, Because of the burden of the king of princes.H8566H1471H6908H2490H4592H4853H4428H8269
11"Because Ephraim has made many altars for sin, They have become for him altars for sinning.H669H7235H4196H2398H4196H2398
12I have written for him the great things of My law, But they were considered a strange thing.H3789H7230H7239H8451H2803H2114
New Testament
13For the sacrifices of My offerings they sacrifice flesh and eat it, But the LORD does not accept them. Now He will remember their iniquity and punish their sins. They shall return to Egypt.H2076H1320H2077H1890H398H3068H7521H2142H5771H6485H2403H7725H4714
14"For Israel has forgotten his Maker, And has built temples; Judah also has multiplied fortified cities; But I will send fire upon his cities, And it shall devour his palaces."H3478H7911H6213H1129H1964H3063H7235H1219H5892H7971H784H5892H398H759
