Put the ram’s horn to your mouth!
One like an eagle comes
against the house of the LORD,
because they transgress my covenant
and rebel against my law.
For this thing is from Israel —
a craftsman made it, and it is not God.
The calf of Samaria will be smashed to bits!
Indeed, they sow the wind
and reap the whirlwind.
There is no standing grain;
what sprouts fails to yield flour.
Even if they did,
foreigners would swallow it up.
For they have gone up to Assyria
like a wild donkey going off on its own.
Ephraim has paid for love.
Even though they hire lovers among the nations,
I will now round them up,
and they will begin to decrease in number
under the burden of the king and leaders.
