1 Listen to this message, you cows of Bashan who live on Mount Samaria.
2 The Almighty Lord has taken an oath on his holiness:
3 Each of you will leave ⌞the city⌟
4 Go to Bethel and sin.
5 Burn bread as a thank offering.
6 I left you with nothing to eat in any of your cities.
7 I stopped the rain from falling
8 So people from two or three cities staggered
9 I struck your ⌞crops⌟ with blight and mildew.
10 I sent plagues on you as I did to Egypt.
11 I destroyed some of you as I destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.
12 This is what I will do to you, Israel.
13 God forms the mountains and creates the wind.
