1 Woe to you who are at ease in Zion,And trust in Mount Samaria,Notable persons in the chief nation,To whom the house of Israel comes!
2 Go over to Calneh and see;And from there go to Hamath the great;Then go down to Gath of the Philistines.Are you better than these kingdoms?Or is their territory greater than your territory?
3 Woe to you who put far off the day of doom,Who cause the seat of violence to come near;
4 Who lie on beds of ivory,Stretch out on your couches,Eat lambs from the flockAnd calves from the midst of the stall;
