2 Now they continue to sin,making for themselves molten images,Silver idols according to their skill,all of them the work of artisans.“To these, offer sacrifice,” they say.People kiss calves!
3 Therefore, they will be like a morning cloudor like the dew that vanishes with the dawn,Like chaff storm-driven from the threshing flooror like smoke out of the window.
4 I, the Lord, am your God,since the land of Egypt; Gods apart from me you do not know;there is no savior but me.
5 I fed you in the wilderness,in the parched land.
6 When I fed them, they were satisfied;when satisfied, they became proud,therefore they forgot me.
7 So, I will be like a lion to them,like a leopard by the road I will keep watch.
8 I will attack them like a bear robbed of its young,and tear their hearts from their breasts;I will devour them on the spot like a lion,as a wild animal would rip them open.
