7 A time will come when you will again worship me. But you will no longer call me the Living God who rescued Israel from Egypt.
8 Instead, you will call me the Living God who rescued you from the land in the north and from all the other countries where I had forced you to go. And you will once again live in your own land.
9 When I think of the prophets,I am shocked, and I tremblelike someone drunk,because of the Lordand his sacred words.
10 Those unfaithful prophetsmisuse their powerall over the country.So God turned the pasture landsinto scorching deserts.
11 The Lord told me to say:You prophets and prieststhink so little of me, the Lord,that you even sinin my own temple!
12 Now I will punish youwith disaster,and you will slip and fallin the darkness.I, the Lord, have spoken.
13 The prophets in Samariawere disgusting to me,because they preachedin the name of Baaland led my people astray.
