זָנַח יִשְׂרָאֵל טוֹב אוֹיֵב יִרְדְּֽפוֹ
Israel hath cast off that which is good; the enemy shall pursue him.
הֵם הִמְלִיכוּ וְלֹא מִמֶּנִּי הֵשִׂירוּ וְלֹא יָדָעְתִּי כַּסְפָּם וּזְהָבָם עָשׂוּ לָהֶם עֲצַבִּים לְמַעַן יִכָּרֵֽת
They have set up kings, but not from Me, they have made princes, and I knew it not; of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
זָנַח עֶגְלֵךְ שֹֽׁמְרוֹן חָרָה אַפִּי בָּם עַד־מָתַי לֹא יוּכְלוּ נִקָּיֹֽן
Thy calf, O Samaria, is cast off; mine anger is kindled against them; how long will it be ere they attain to innocency?
כִּי מִיִּשְׂרָאֵל וְהוּא חָרָשׁ עָשָׂהוּ וְלֹא אֱלֹהִים הוּא כִּֽי־שְׁבָבִים יִֽהְיֶה עֵגֶל שֹׁמְרֽוֹן
For from Israel is even this: The craftsman made it, and it is no God; yea, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in shivers.
כִּי רוּחַ יִזְרָעוּ וְסוּפָתָה יִקְצֹרוּ קָמָה אֵֽין־לוֹ צֶמַח בְּלִי יַֽעֲשֶׂה־קֶּמַח אוּלַי יַֽעֲשֶׂה זָרִים יִבְלָעֻֽהוּ
For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind; it hath no stalk, the bud that shall yield no meal; if so be it yield, strangers shall swallow it up.
