The Coming Destruction

2 ¹Hear, you peoples, all of you;^a ²pay attention, O earth, and all that is in it, and ³let the Lord GOD be a witness against you, ⁴the Lord from his holy temple.

3 For behold, ⁵the LORD is coming out of ⁶his place, and will come down and ⁷tread upon the high places of the earth.

4 And ⁸the mountains will melt under him, and the valleys will split open, like wax before the fire, like waters poured down a steep place.

5 All this is for ⁹the transgression of Jacob and for the sins of the house of Israel. ¹⁰What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not ¹¹Samaria? And what is ¹²the high place of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?

6 Therefore I will make ¹³Samaria ¹⁴a heap in the open country, a place for planting vineyards, and I will pour down her stones ¹⁵into the valley and ¹⁶uncover her foundations.

7 All ¹⁷her carved images shall be beaten to pieces, ¹⁸all her wages shall be burned with fire, and all her idols I will lay waste, for from ¹⁹the fee of a prostitute she gathered them, and to the fee of a prostitute they shall return.

8 ²⁰For this I will lament and wail; I will go ²¹stripped and naked; I will make lamentation ²²like the jackals, and mourning ²³like the ostriches.

9 ²⁴For her wound is incurable, and it has come to Judah; it has reached to the gate of my people, to Jerusalem.

10 ²⁵Tell it not in ²⁶Gath; weep not at all; in Beth-le-aphrah ²⁷roll yourselves in the dust.

11 Pass on your way, inhabitants of Shaphir, ²⁸in nakedness and shame; the inhabitants of Zaanan do not come out; the lamentation of Beth-ezel shall take away from you its standing place.

12 For the inhabitants of Maroth wait anxiously for good, because disaster has come down ²⁹from the LORD to the gate of Jerusalem.

13 Harness the steeds to the chariots, inhabitants of ³⁰Lachish; it was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion, for in you were found ³¹the transgressions of Israel.

14 Therefore you shall give parting gifts^b to ³²Moresheth-gath; the houses of ³³Achzib shall be a deceitful thing to the kings of Israel.

15 I will again bring ³⁴a conqueror to you, inhabitants of ³⁵Mareshah; the glory of Israel shall come to ³⁶Adullam.

16 ³⁷Make yourselves bald and cut off your hair, for the children of your delight; ³⁸make yourselves as bald as the eagle, for they shall go from you into exile.
