You will go out through breaches—
    each woman straight ahead,
and you will be cast to Harmon.”[a]
It is the declaration of Adonai.
“Come to Bethel and transgress,
in Gilgal multiply transgression.
Every morning bring your sacrifices
    and your tithes every three days.
Offer up hametz as a thank offering,
call out about freewill offerings—
    boast about it!
For so you love to do, Bnei-Yisrael.”
It is the declaration of my Lord Adonai.
