High places

The inhabitants of Samaria will fear
For the

calf of Beth-aven.

Indeed, its people will mourn for it,
And its idolatrous priests will cry out over it,
Over its glory, since it has departed from it.

Though you, Israel, play the harlot,
Do not let Judah become guilty;
Also do not go to Gilgal,
Or go up to Beth-aven

And take the oath:

“As the Lord lives!”

Blow the horn in Gibeah,

The trumpet in Ramah.
Sound an alarm at Beth-aven:
“Behind you, Benjamin!”

The sin

So the king consulted, and made two golden calves, and he said to them, “It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem; behold your gods, O Israel, that brought you up from the land of Egypt.”

This event became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to blot it out and destroy it from off the face of the earth.

He will give up Israel on account of the sins of Jeroboam, which he committed and with which he made Israel to sin.”

“As for those who swear by the

guilt of Samaria,

Who say, ‘As your god lives, O Dan,’
And, ‘As the way of Beersheba lives,’
They will fall and not rise again.”

All this is for the rebellion of Jacob
And for the sins of the house of Israel.
What is the rebellion of Jacob?
Is it not Samaria?
What is the high place of Judah?
Is it not Jerusalem?

The thorn

For behold, they will go because of destruction;
Egypt will gather them up, Memphis will bury them.
Weeds will take over their treasures of silver;

Thorns will be in their tents.

For the land of my people in which thorns and briars shall come up;

Yea, for all the joyful houses and for the jubilant city.

Thorns will come up in its fortified towers,
Nettles and thistles in its fortified cities;
It will also be a haunt of jackals
And an abode of ostriches.

Their altars

Furthermore, the altar that was at Bethel and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin, had made, even that altar and the high place he broke down. Then he

demolished its stones, ground them to dust, and burned the Asherah.

Then he burned the bones of the priests on their altars and purged Judah and Jerusalem.

They shall

Men will go into caves of the rocks
And into holes of the ground
Before the terror of the Lord
And the splendor of His majesty,
When He arises to make the earth tremble.
