BibleText:

1 Israel [is] an empty vine, he brings forth fruit to himself: according to the multitude of his fruit he has increased the altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly images.
2 Their heart is divided; now will they be found faulty: he will break down their altars, he will spoil their images.
3 For now they will say, We have no king, because we feared not the LORD [Yahweh]; what then should a king do to us?
4 They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springs up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria will fear because of the calves of Bethaven: for the people of it will mourn over it, and the priests of it [that] rejoiced on it, for the glory of it, because it is departed from it.
6 It will be also carried to Assyria [for] a present to king Jareb: Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel.
7 [As for] Samaria, her king is cut off as the foam upon the water.
8 The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle will come up on their altars; and they will say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
9 O Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah: there they stood: the battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity did not overtake them.
10 [It is] in my desire that I should chastise them; and the people will be gathered against them, when they will bind themselves in their two furrows.
11 And Ephraim [is as] a heifer [that is] taught, [and] loves to tread out [the corn]; but I passed over upon her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to ride; Judah will plow, [and] Jacob will break his clods.
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for [it is] time to seek the LORD [Yahweh], till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
13 You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped iniquity; you have eaten the fruit of lies: because you trusted in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men.
14 Therefore will a tumult arise among your people, and all your fortresses will be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Betharbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces upon [her] children.
15 So will Bethel do to you because of your great wickedness: in a morning will the king of Israel utterly be cut off.
