Israel Reaps the Whirlwind

1Put the trumpet to your lips!

Like an eagle the enemy comes against the house of the Lord,

Because they have violated My covenant

And rebelled against My Law.

2They cry out to Me,

“My God, we of Israel know You!”

3Israel has rejected the good;

The enemy will pursue him.

4They have set up kings, but not by Me;

They have appointed officials, but I did not know it.

With their silver and gold they have made idols for themselves,

So that they will be eliminated.
