1
Hear this word that the Lord has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying:

"You only have I known of all the families of the earth; Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities."
3
Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?
4
Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? Will a young lion cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?
5
Will a bird fall into a snare on the earth, where there is no trap for it? Will a snare spring up from the earth, if it has caught nothing at all?
6
If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid? If there is calamity in a city, will not the Lord have done it?
