And ye shall go forth by the breaches one after another, and ye shall be cast out of the palace, saith the LORD.

Go to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal increase the rebellion; and bring your sacrifices early in the morning and your tithes every three years:

and offer a sacrifice of praise with leaven, and proclaim and publish the free will offerings for this is the way you like it, O ye sons of Israel, said the Lord GOD.

You will each go straight out
    through breaches in the wall,(A)
    and you will be cast out toward Harmon,[a]
declares the Lord.
“Go to Bethel(B) and sin;
    go to Gilgal(C) and sin yet more.
Bring your sacrifices every morning,(D)
    your tithes(E) every three years.[b](F)
Burn leavened bread(G) as a thank offering
    and brag about your freewill offerings(H)
boast about them, you Israelites,
    for this is what you love to do,”
declares the Sovereign Lord.
