WOE TO THE COMPLACENT

6 Woe to those who are at ease in Zionad

and to those who feel secure on the hill of Samaria—

the notable people in this first of the nations,

those the house of Israel comes to.

2 Cross over to Calnehae and see;

go from there to great Hamath;af

then go down to Gathag of the Philistines.

Are you better than these kingdoms?

Is their territory larger than yours?

3 You dismiss any thought of the evil dayah

and bring in a reign of violence.ai
