The Lord Will Judge Samaria

the withering flower, its beautiful splendor,

situated at the head of a rich valley,

the crown of those overcome with wine.

With the force of a hailstorm or a destructive windstorm,

with the might of a driving, torrential rainstorm,

he will knock that crown to the ground with his hand.

will be trampled underfoot.

like a young lion to the house of Judah.

5:15 Then I will return again to my lair

until they have suffered their punishment.

Then they will seek me;

in their distress they will earnestly seek me.
