3
1Hear this word that the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has spoken against you, O people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place], saying,
2You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
3Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
4Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
5Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no trap [is] for him? shall [one] take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
6Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has not done [it]?
7Surely the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER) will do nothing, but he reveals his secret unto his servants the prophets.
8The lion has roared, who will not fear? the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER) has spoken, who can but prophesy?
9Publish in the palaces at Ashdod [powerful], and in the palaces in the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place], and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Shomron [watch mountain], and behold the great tumults in the midst thereof, and the oppressed in the midst thereof.
10For they know not to do right, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
11Therefore thus says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER); An adversary [there shall be] even round about the land; nd he shall bring down youi strength from youi, and youi palaces shall be spoiled.
12Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); As the shepherd takes out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] be taken out that dwell in Shomron [watch mountain] in the corner of a bed, and in Dammesek (Damascus) [silent is the sackcloth weaver] [in] a couch.
13Hear you2f, and testify in the house of Ya’akov [Heal of God], says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER), the God-Elohe [The Living Word] (The Many Powered) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies],
14That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] upon him I will also visit the altars of Beit-El [House of God]: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to (to do entirely, do wholly) the ground.
15And I will strike the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
