Thus said the LORD to me: Go, and stand in the gate of the children of the people, through which the kings of Yehudah come in, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Yerushalayim;
and say, Hear you the word of the LORD, kings of Yehudah, and inhabitants of Yerushalayim: thus says the LORD of Armies, the God of Yisra'el, Behold, I will bring evil on this place, which whoever hears, his ears shall tingle.

*Listen to this, you Kohanim! Listen, house of Yisra'el, and give ear, house of the king! For the judgment is against you; for you have been a snare at Mitzpah, and a net spread on Tavor.
Listen to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Shomron, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who tell their lords, *Bring, and let us drink.*
