The Lord God has ·promised [sworn] this:
    “Just as surely as I am a holy God,
the time will come
    when you will be taken away ·by hooks [or in baskets],
    and what is left of you with fishhooks.
You will go straight out of the city
    through ·holes [breaches] in the walls,
and you will be thrown ·on the garbage dump [on the dung heap; or out toward Harmon],” says the Lord.

“Come to the city of Bethel and ·sin [rebel; transgress];
    come to Gilgal and ·sin [rebel; transgress] even more [C Bethel and Gilgal were important worship centers in Israel].
Offer your sacrifices every morning,
    and bring ·one-tenth of your crops [your tithes] every three days.
