30. have brought this on you. You have had sexual relations with the nations and made yourselves unclean by worshiping their idols.
31. You did the same things your sister did, so you will get the same punishment, like a bitter cup to drink.
32. “This is what the Lord God says:You will drink the same cup your sister did,and that cup is deep and wide.Everyone will make fun of you,because the cup is full.
33. It will make you miserable and drunk.It is the cup of fear and ruin.It is the cup of your sister Samaria.
34. You will drink everything in it,and then you will smash itand tear at your breasts.I have spoken, says the Lord God.
35. “So this is what the Lord God says: You have forgotten me and turned your back on me. So you will be punished for your sexual sins.”
36. The Lord said to me: “Human, will you judge Samaria and Jerusalem, showing them their hateful acts?
37. They are guilty of adultery and murder. They have taken part in adultery with their idols. They even offered our children as sacrifices in the fire to be food for these idols.
38. They have also done this to me: They made my Temple unclean at the same time they dishonored my Sabbaths.
39. They sacrificed their children to their idols. Then they entered my Temple at that very time to dishonor it. That is what they did inside my Temple!
