The Lord God swears by his holiness:
    The days are surely coming against you,
    when they will drag you away with hooks,
    every last one of you with fishhooks.
You will go out through the broken-down walls.
    Each woman will go straight ahead,
    and you will be thrown out[a] toward Harmon,[b]
    declares the Lord.

Go to Bethel and rebel.
    Rebel even more at Gilgal.
    Bring your sacrifices every morning,
    your tithes every third day.
