Chapter 8

1

SET the shofar to your mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of Yahuah, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my Torah.

2

Yashar'el shall cry unto me, My Elohiym, we know you.

3

Yashar'el has cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.

4

They have set up kings, but not by 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.

5

Your calf, O Shomeron, has cast you off; my anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocency?

6

For from Yashar'el was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not Elohiym: but the calf of Shomeron shall be broken in pieces.

7

For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it has no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.

8

Yashar'el is swallowed up: now shall they be among the other nations as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.

9

For they are gone up to Ashshur, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephrayim has hired lovers.

10

Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.

11

Because Ephrayim has made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin.

12

I have written to him the great things of my Torah, but they were counted as a strange thing.

13

They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of my offerings, and eat it; but Yahuah accepts them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Mitsrayim.

14

For Yashar'el has forgotten his Maker, and builds temples; and Yahudah has multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
