1:14 So I will set fire to Rabbah’s 1 city wall; 2
fire 3 will consume her fortresses.
War cries will be heard on the day of battle; 4
a strong gale will blow on the day of the windstorm. 5
3:9 Make this announcement in 6 the fortresses of Ashdod
and in the fortresses in the land of Egypt.
Say this:
“Gather on the hills around Samaria! 7
Observe the many acts of violence 8 taking place within the city, 9
the oppressive deeds 10 occurring in it.” 11
4:4 “Go to Bethel 12 and rebel! 13
At Gilgal 14 rebel some more!
Bring your sacrifices in 15 the morning,
your tithes on 16 the third day!
8:3 The women singing in the temple 17 will wail in that day.”
The sovereign Lord is speaking.
“There will be many corpses littered everywhere! 18 Be quiet!”
