CHAP. VI.
1 The wantonnes of Israel, 7 shalbe plagued with desolation, 12 and their incorrigiblenes.
1Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountaine of Samaria, which are named chiefe of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came.1
3Ye that put farre away the euil day, and cause the seat of violence to come neere:3
4That lie vpon beds of Yuorie, and stretch themselues vpon their couches, and eate the lambes out of the flocke, and the calues out of the midst of the stall:4
5That chaunt to the sound of the Uiole, and inuent to themselues instruments of musicke, like Dauid:5
6That drinke wine in bowles, and anoint themselues with the chiefe ointments: but they are not grieued for the affliction of Ioseph.6
8The Lord God hath sworne by himselfe, saith the Lord the God of hostes, I abhorre the excellencie of Iacob, and hate his palaces: therefore wil I deliuer vp the citie, with all that is therein.8
9And it shall come to passe, if there remaine tenne men in one house, that they shall die.
10And a mans vncle shall take him vp, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say vnto him that is by the sides of the house; Is there yet any with thee? and hee shall say, No. Then shall he say, Holde thy tongue: for wee may not make mention of the Name of the Lord.10
11For beholde, the Lord commandeth, and hee will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.11
14But beholde, I wil raise vp against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the Lord, the God of hostes, and they shall afflict you from the entring in of Hemath, vnto the riuer of the wildernesse.14
