15 The wicked(A) foe pulls all of them up with hooks,(B)
he catches them in his net,(C)
he gathers them up in his dragnet;
and so he rejoices and is glad.
16 Therefore he sacrifices to his net
and burns incense(D) to his dragnet,
for by his net he lives in luxury
and enjoys the choicest food.
17 Is he to keep on emptying his net,
destroying nations without mercy?(E)

11 Ephraim’s glory(A) will fly away like a bird(B)—
no birth, no pregnancy, no conception.(C)
12 Even if they rear children,
I will bereave(D) them of every one.
Woe(E) to them
when I turn away from them!(F)
13 I have seen Ephraim,(G) like Tyre,
planted in a pleasant place.(H)
But Ephraim will bring out
their children to the slayer.”(I)
14 Give them, Lord—
what will you give them?
Give them wombs that miscarry
and breasts that are dry.(J)
15 “Because of all their wickedness in Gilgal,(K)
I hated them there.
Because of their sinful deeds,(L)
I will drive them out of my house.
I will no longer love them;(M)
all their leaders are rebellious.(N)
16 Ephraim(O) is blighted,
their root is withered,
they yield no fruit.(P)
Even if they bear children,
I will slay(Q) their cherished offspring.”

The Charge Against Israel

2 Chronicles 21:12-15
New International Version
12 Jehoram received a letter from Elijah(A) the prophet, which said:
“This is what the Lord, the God of your father(B) David, says: ‘You have not followed the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa(C) king of Judah. 13 But you have followed the ways of the kings of Israel, and you have led Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab did.(D) You have also murdered your own brothers, members of your own family, men who were better(E) than you. 14 So now the Lord is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives and everything that is yours, with a heavy blow. 15 You yourself will be very ill with a lingering disease(F) of the bowels, until the disease causes your bowels to come out.’”

18 “Go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who rules in Samaria. He is now in Naboth’s vineyard, where he has gone to take possession of it. 19 Say to him, ‘This is what the Lord says: Have you not murdered a man and seized his property?’(A) Then say to him, ‘This is what the Lord says: In the place where dogs licked up Naboth’s blood,(B) dogs(C) will lick up your blood—yes, yours!’”
20 Ahab said to Elijah, “So you have found me, my enemy!”(D)
“I have found you,” he answered, “because you have sold(E) yourself to do evil in the eyes of the Lord. 21 He says, ‘I am going to bring disaster on you. I will wipe out your descendants and cut off from Ahab every last male(F) in Israel—slave or free.[a](G) 22 I will make your house(H) like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat and that of Baasha son of Ahijah, because you have aroused my anger and have caused Israel to sin.’(I)

Judgment Against Wicked Kings
22 This is what the Lord says: “Go down to the palace of the king(A) of Judah and proclaim this message there: 2 ‘Hear(B) the word of the Lord to you, king of Judah, you who sit on David’s throne(C)—you, your officials and your people who come through these gates.(D) 3 This is what the Lord says: Do what is just(E) and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor(F) the one who has been robbed. Do no wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow,(G) and do not shed innocent blood(H) in this place. 4 For if you are careful to carry out these commands, then kings(I) who sit on David’s throne will come through the gates of this palace, riding in chariots and on horses, accompanied by their officials and their people. 5 But if you do not obey(J) these commands, declares the Lord, I swear(K) by myself that this palace will become a ruin.’”
6 For this is what the Lord says about the palace of the king of Judah:
“Though you are like Gilead(L) to me,
like the summit of Lebanon,(M)
I will surely make you like a wasteland,(N)
like towns not inhabited.
7 I will send destroyers(O) against you,
each man with his weapons,
and they will cut(P) up your fine cedar beams
and throw them into the fire.(Q)
8 “People from many nations will pass by this city and will ask one another, ‘Why has the Lord done such a thing to this great city?’(R) 9 And the answer will be: ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God and have worshiped and served other gods.(S)’”

7 Go, tell Jeroboam that this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says:(A) ‘I raised you up from among the people and appointed you ruler(B) over my people Israel. 8 I tore(C) the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you, but you have not been like my servant David, who kept my commands and followed me with all his heart, doing only what was right(D) in my eyes. 9 You have done more evil(E) than all who lived before you.(F) You have made for yourself other gods, idols(G) made of metal; you have aroused(H) my anger and turned your back on me.(I)
10 “‘Because of this, I am going to bring disaster(J) on the house of Jeroboam. I will cut off from Jeroboam every last male in Israel—slave or free.[a](K) I will burn up the house of Jeroboam as one burns dung, until it is all gone.(L) 11 Dogs(M) will eat those belonging to Jeroboam who die in the city, and the birds(N) will feed on those who die in the country. The Lord has spoken!’
12 “As for you, go back home. When you set foot in your city, the boy will die. 13 All Israel will mourn for him and bury him. He is the only one belonging to Jeroboam who will be buried, because he is the only one in the house of Jeroboam in whom the Lord, the God of Israel, has found anything good.(O)
14 “The Lord will raise up for himself a king over Israel who will cut off the family of Jeroboam. Even now this is beginning to happen.[b] 15 And the Lord will strike Israel, so that it will be like a reed swaying in the water. He will uproot(P) Israel from this good land that he gave to their ancestors and scatter them beyond the Euphrates River, because they aroused(Q) the Lord’s anger by making Asherah(R) poles.[c] 16 And he will give Israel up because of the sins(S) Jeroboam has committed and has caused Israel to commit.”
