13. You have plowed wickedness and reaped injustice; you have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your own way and in your large number of soldiers,
14. the roar of battle will rise against your people,and all your fortifications will be demolished in a day of war,like Shalman’s destruction of Beth-arbel.Mothers will be dashed to piecesalong with their children.
15. So it will be done to you, Bethel, because of your extreme evil.At dawn the king of Israel will be totally destroyed.
