You will go out at the breaks in the wall,
    everyone straight before her;
    and you will cast yourselves into Harmon,” says Yahweh.
“Go to Bethel, and sin;
    to Gilgal, and sin more.
Bring your sacrifices every morning,
    your tithes every three days,
    offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened,
    and proclaim free will offerings and brag about them:
    for this pleases you, you children of Israel,” says the Lord Yahweh.

    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)

    and brag about your freewill offerings(H)
boast about them, you Israelites,
    for this is what you love to do,”
