31. You’ve acted the same way as your sister. That is why I will put her cup in your hand.
32. This is what the Almighty Lord says:You will drink from your sister’s cup,a cup that is deep and wide.You will be scorned and mocked,because this cup holds so much.
33. The cup of your sister Samaria will be filledwith drunkenness and sorrow.
34. You will drink from it and drain it.You will break it into piecesand tear your breasts off your body.I have spoken, declares the Almighty Lord.
35. “This is what the Almighty Lord says: You have forgotten me and turned your back on me. So you will be punished for your sinning and prostitution.”
36. The Lord said to me, “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah and tell them about their disgusting practices?
37. They have committed adultery. Their hands are covered with blood. They commit adultery with their idols. They have sacrificed the children they gave birth to for me as burnt offerings to idols.
38. They have also done this to me: They have polluted my holy places when they do these things and dishonored the days to worship me.
39. When they sacrificed their children to their idols, they came into my holy place and dishonored it. That is what they’ve done in my temple.
40. “They even sent messengers to invite men to come from far away. When the men arrived, they washed themselves for the men, painted their eyes, and put on their jewels.
41. They sat on their fine couches with tables in front of them. They put my incense and my olive oil on their tables.
42. “I heard the noise from a carefree crowd. A large number of people came from the desert, and they put bracelets on the women’s wrists and beautiful crowns on their heads.
43. Then I said, ‘She is worn out from her acts of adultery.’ Yet, men continued to have sex with her.
44. Men slept with her. They slept with those sinful women, Oholah and Oholibah just as they slept with a prostitute.
45. Righteous people will punish these women for adultery and for murder, because these women have committed adultery and their hands are covered with blood.
46. “This is what the Almighty Lord says: Bring together a mob ⌊against the people of Samaria and Jerusalem⌋. Hand them over to terror and looting.
47. Then the mob will stone them and kill them with swords. The mob will kill their sons and daughters and burn their homes.
48. So I will put a stop to the sinning in the land, and all the women will be warned not to sin as they do.
49. They will be punished for their sins, and they will pay for their sin of idolatry. Then they will know that I am the Almighty Lord.”
