Then you shall say to them, So says Jehovah, Behold, I will fill all those living in this land, even the kings that sit on David’s throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all those living in Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
Hear this, O priests, and attend, house of Israel. And give ear, house of the king. For the judgment is toward you, because you have been a snare to Mizpeh, and a net spread on Tabor.
But cursed be one deceiving and there is a male in his flock, and he vows it, but he sacrifices a blemished one to the Lord. For I am a great King, says Jehovah of Hosts, and My name is feared among the nations.
A son honors his father, and a servant his master. and if I am a father, where is My honor? And if I am a master, where is My fear? says Jehovah of Hosts to you, O priests who despise My name. But you say, In what have we despised Your name?
If you will not hear, and if you will not set it on your heart to give glory to My name, says Jehovah of Hosts, even I will send the curse on you, and I will curse your blessings. And indeed, I have cursed it, because you are not setting it on your heart.
