13 You have plowed wickedness,
    you have reaped injustice,
you have eaten the fruit of lies,[a]
    because you have trusted in your strength,
    in the multitude of your warriors.
14 The tumult of war will rise up against your people,
        and all your fortresses will be destroyed,
    as Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel;
on the day of war
    mothers were dashed to pieces with their children.[b]
15 So it will be done to you, O Bethel,
    because of the evil of your wickedness;
at dawn, the king of Israel
    will be utterly destroyed.
