4 Hear this word, you ^(A)cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria,
Who oppress the ^(B)poor,
Who crush the needy,
Who say to ^[a]your husbands, “Bring wine, let us ^(C)drink!”
^2 (D)The Lord God has sworn by His holiness:
“Behold, the days shall come upon you
When He will take you away ^(E)with fishhooks,
And your posterity with fishhooks.
^3 (F)You will go out through broken walls,
Each one straight ahead of her,
And you will ^[b]be cast into Harmon,”
Says the Lord.

³⁰ Rebuke the beasts of the reeds,
^(A)The herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples,
Till everyone ^(B)submits himself with pieces of silver.
Scatter the peoples who delight in war.
