16 You are nothing morethan a stubborn cow—so stubborn that I, the Lord,cannot feed you like lambsin an open pasture.
17 You people of Israelare charmed by idols.Leave them alone!
18 You get drunk, then sleepwith prostitutes;you would rather be vulgarthan lead a decent life.
19 And so you will be swept awayin a whirlwindfor sacrificing to idols.
