1 Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel. H · G · S  
2 The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up. H · G · S  
3 For thus saith the Lord GOD; The city that went out by a thousand shall leave an hundred, and that which went forth by an hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.

H · G · S  
4 For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live: H · G · S  
5 But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought. H · G · S  
6 Seek the LORD, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel. H · G · S  
7 Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth, H · G · S  
8 Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name: H · G · S  seven stars and Orion day dark with night waters of the sea
9 That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress. H · G · S  
10 They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly. H · G · S  
11 Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them. H · G · S  
12 For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right. H · G · S  
13 Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time. H · G · S  
14 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken. H · G · S  that ye may live
15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph. H · G · S  remnant
16 Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord, saith thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing. H · G · S  
17 And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD. H · G · S  
18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light. H · G · S  day of the LORD
19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him. H · G · S  
20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

H · G · S  
21 I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies. H · G · S  
22 Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts. H · G · S  
23 Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols. H · G · S  
24 But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. H · G · S  
25 Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel? H · G · S  A742,43
26 But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves. H · G · S  
27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.

H · G · S
