81“Put the trumpet to your lips! Something like an eagle is over Yahweh’s house,because they have broken my covenant,and rebelled against my law.+2They cry to me, ‘My God, we Israel acknowledge you!’+3Israel has cast off that which is good.The enemy will pursue him.+4They have set up kings, but not by me.They have made princes, and I didn’t approve.Of their silver and their gold they have made themselves idols,that they may be cut off.+5Let Samaria throw out his calf idol!My anger burns against them!How long will it be until they are capable of purity?+6For this is even from Israel!The workman made it, and it is no God;indeed, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.+7For they sow the wind,and they will reap the whirlwind.He has no standing grain.The stalk will yield no head.If it does yield, strangers will swallow it up.+8Israel is swallowed up.Now they are among the nations like a worthless thing.+9For they have gone up to Assyria,like a wild donkey wandering alone.Ephraim has hired lovers for himself.+10But although they sold themselves among the nations,I will now gather them;and they begin to waste away because of the oppression of the king of mighty ones.+11Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning,they became for him altars for sinning.+12I wrote for him the many things of my law;but they were regarded as a strange thing.+13As for the sacrifices of my offerings,they sacrifice meat and eat it;But Yahweh doesn’t accept them.Now he will remember their iniquity,and punish their sins.They will return to Egypt.+14For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces;and Judah has multiplied fortified cities;but I will send a fire on his cities,and it will devour its fortresses.”+
