1:5 1 Why do you insist on being battered?
Why do you continue to rebel? 2
Your head has a massive wound, 3
your whole body is weak. 4
1:13 Do not bring any more meaningless 5 offerings;
I consider your incense detestable! 6
You observe new moon festivals, Sabbaths, and convocations,
but I cannot tolerate sin-stained celebrations! 7
8:5 The Lord spoke to me again:
10:20 At that time 8 those left in Israel, those who remain of the family 9 of Jacob, will no longer rely on a foreign leader that abuses them. 10 Instead they will truly 11 rely on the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. 12
13:2 Even now they persist in sin! 13
They make metal images for themselves,
idols that they skillfully fashion 14 from their own silver;
all of them are nothing but the work of craftsmen!
There is a saying about them: 15
“Those who sacrifice 16 to the calf idol are calf kissers!” 17
