절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	People of Israel, I rescued you from Egypt. Now listen to my judgment against you.	Hear this word that the Lord hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
2	Of all nations on earth, you are the only one I have chosen. That's why I will punish you because of your sins.	You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
3	The Work of a Prophet Can two people walk together without agreeing to meet?	Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
4	Does a lion roar in the forest unless it has caught a victim? Does it growl in its den unless it is eating?	Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
5	How can anyone catch a bird without using a net? Does a trap spring shut unless something is caught?	Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
6	Isn't the whole city frightened when the trumpet signals an attack? Isn't the Lord the one who brings disaster on a city?	Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the Lord hath not done it?
7	Whatever the Lord God plans to do, he tells his servants, the prophets.	Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
8	Everyone is terrified when a lion roars— and ordinary people become prophets when the Lord God speaks.	The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord God hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
9	Samaria Is Doomed Here is a message for the leaders of Philistia and Egypt— tell everyone to come together on the hills of Samaria. Let them see the injustice and the lawlessness in that city.	Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great tumults in the midst thereof, and the oppressed in the midst thereof.
10	The Lord has said that they don't even know how to do right. They have become rich from violence and robbery.	For they know not to do right, saith the Lord, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
11	And so the Lord God has sworn that they will be surrounded. Enemies will break through their defenses and steal their treasures.	Therefore thus saith the Lord God; An adversary there shall be even round about the land; and he shall bring down thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled.
12	The Lord has promised that only a few from Samaria will escape with their lives and with some broken pieces of their beds and couches. It will be like when a shepherd rescues two leg bones and part of a sheep's ear from the jaws of a lion.	Thus saith the Lord; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.
13	The Altars at Bethel The Lord God All-Powerful told me to speak this message against Jacob's descendants:	Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord God, the God of hosts,
14	When I, the Lord, punish Israel for their sins, I will destroy the altars at Bethel. Even the corners of the altar will be left in the dirt.	That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Beth–el: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.
15	I will tear down winter homes and summer homes. Houses decorated with ivory and all other mansions will be gone forever. I, the Lord, have spoken!	And I will smite the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, saith the Lord.
