1. Listen to this message, you cows of Bashan on the Mountain of Samaria.You take things from the poorand crush people who are in need.Then you command your husbands,“Bring us something to drink!”
2. The Lord God has promised this:“Just as surely as I am a holy God,the time will comewhen you will be taken away by hooks,and what is left of you with fishhooks.
3. You will go straight out of the citythrough holes in the walls,and you will be thrown on the garbage dump,” says the Lord.
