11. The dogs will eat he who belongs to Jeroboam who dies in the city; and the birds of the sky will eat he who dies in the field: for the Lord has spoken it.”’
12. Arise therefore, and go to your house. When your feet enter into the city, the child will die.
13. All Israel will mourn for him and bury him; for he only of Jeroboam will come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the Lord, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
14. Moreover the Lord will raise up a king for himself over Israel, who will cut off the house of Jeroboam. This is the day! What? Even now.
15. For the Lord will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and he will root up Israel out of this good land which he gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the River, because they have made their Asherah poles, provoking the Lord to anger.
