¹³ Hear, and testify against the house of Jacob,
    says the Lord God, the God of hosts:
¹⁴ On the day I punish Israel for its transgressions,
    I will punish the altars of Bethel,
and the horns of the altar shall be cut off
    and fall to the ground.
¹⁵ I will tear down the winter house as well as the summer house;
    and the houses of ivory shall perish,
and the great houses^[a] shall come to an end,
says the Lord.

4 Hear this word, you cows of Bashan
    who are on Mount Samaria,
who oppress the poor, who crush the needy,
    who say to their husbands, ‘Bring something to drink!’
² The Lord God has sworn by his holiness:
    The time is surely coming upon you,
when they shall take you away with hooks,
    even the last of you with fish-hooks.
³ Through breaches in the wall you shall leave,
    each one straight ahead;
    and you shall be flung out into Harmon,^[b]
says the Lord.
⁴ Come to Bethel—and transgress;
    to Gilgal—and multiply transgression;
bring your sacrifices every morning,
    your tithes every three days;
⁵ bring a thank-offering of leavened bread,
    and proclaim freewill-offerings, publish them;
    for so you love to do, O people of Israel!
says the Lord God.
