At bGilgal multiply transgression;
cBring your sacrifices every morning,
dYour tithes every three1 days.
Proclaim and announce bthe freewill offerings;
For this you love,
You children of Israel!”
Says the Lord God.
Israel Did Not Accept Correction
And lack of bread in all your places;
aYet you have not returned to Me,”
Says the Lord.
When there were still three months to the harvest.
I made it rain on one city,
I withheld rain from another city.
One part was rained upon,
And where it did not rain the part withered.
But they were not satisfied;
Yet you have not returned to Me,”
Says the Lord.
When your gardens increased,
Your vineyards,
Your fig trees,
And your olive trees,
bThe locust devoured them;
Yet you have not returned to Me,”
Says the Lord.
Your young men I killed with a sword,
Along with your captive horses;
I made the stench of your camps come up into your nostrils;
Yet you have not returned to Me,”
Says the Lord.
As God overthrew aSodom and Gomorrah,
And you were like a firebrand plucked from the burning;
Yet you have not returned to Me,”
Says the Lord.
