| 10 1 | Israel is a luxuriant vine that yields its fruit. The more his fruit increased the more altars he built; as his country improved he improved his pillars. | גֶּפֶן בֹּוקֵק יִשְׂרָאֵל פְּרִי יְשַׁוֶּה־לֹּו כְּרֹב לְפִרְיֹו הִרְבָּה לַמִּזְבְּחֹות כְּטֹוב לְאַרְצֹו הֵיטִיבוּ מַצֵּבֹות׃ | |
| 2 | Their heart is false; now they must bear their guilt. Yahweh will break down their altars, and destroy their pillars. | חָלַק לִבָּם עַתָּה יֶאְשָׁמוּ הוּא יַעֲרֹף מִזְבְּחֹותָם יְשֹׁדֵד מַצֵּבֹותָם׃ | |
| 3 | For now they will say: "We have no king, for we fear not Yahweh, and a king, what could he do for us?" | כִּי עַתָּה יֹאמְרוּ אֵין מֶלֶךְ לָנוּ כִּי לֹא יָרֵאנוּ אֶת־יְהוָה וְהַמֶּלֶךְ מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה־לָּנוּ׃ | |
| 4 | They utter mere words; with empty oaths they make covenants; so judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field. | דִּבְּרוּ דְבָרִים אָלֹות שָׁוְא כָּרֹת בְּרִית וּפָרַח כָּרֹאשׁ מִשְׁפָּט עַל תַּלְמֵי שָׂדָי׃ | |
| 5 | The inhabitants of Samaria tremble for the calf of Beth-aven. Its people shall mourn for it, and its idolatrous priests shall wail over it, over its glory which has departed from it. | לְעֶגְלֹות בֵּית אָוֶן יָגוּרוּ שְׁכַן שֹׁמְרֹון כִּי־אָבַל עָלָיו עַמֹּו וּכְמָרָיו עָלָיו יָגִילוּ עַל־כְּבֹודֹו כִּי־גָלָה מִמֶּנּוּ׃ | |
| 6 | Yea, the thing itself shall be carried to Assyria, as tribute to the great king. Ephraim shall be put to shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his idol. | גַּם־אֹותֹו לְאַשּׁוּר יוּבָל מִנְחָה לְמֶלֶךְ יָרֵב בָּשְׁנָה אֶפְרַיִם יִקָּח וְיֵבֹושׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵעֲצָתֹו׃ | |
| 7 | Samaria's king shall perish, like a chip on the face of the waters. | נִדְמֶה שֹׁמְרֹון מַלְכָּהּ כְּקֶצֶף עַל־פְּנֵי־מָיִם׃ | |
| 8 | The high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed. Thorn and thistle shall grow up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us, and to the hills, Fall upon us. | וְנִשְׁמְדוּ בָּמֹות אָוֶן חַטַּאת יִשְׂרָאֵל קֹוץ וְדַרְדַּר יַעֲלֶה עַל־מִזְבְּחֹותָם וְאָמְרוּ לֶהָרִים כַּסּוּנוּ וְלַגְּבָעֹות נִפְלוּ עָלֵינוּ׃ ס | |
