Contextual Overview
4 "You are to tell them that Adonai says: ‘If a person falls, doesn't he get up again? If someone goes astray, doesn't he turn back? 5 Why do these people keep backsliding? Why is their backsliding so persistent? They cling to deceit and refuse to return! 6 I listened attentively but they spoke nothing right. No one repents of his wickedness, saying, "What have I done!" Each runs off in his own direction, like a horse plunging headlong into battle. 7 Storks in the sky know their seasons; doves, swallows and cranes their migration times; but my people do not know the rulings of Adonai ! 8 "‘How can you say, "We are wise; Adonai 's Torah is with us," when in fact the lying pen of the scribes has turned it into falsehood? 9 The wise are put to shame, alarmed, entrapped. They have rejected the word of Adonai , so what wisdom do they have? 10 "‘Therefore I will give their wives to others, and their fields to those who take them over; for from the least to the greatest, all are greedy for gains; prophets and cohanim alike all practice fraud — 11 they dress the wound of the daughter of my people, but only superficially, saying, "There is perfect shalom," when there is no shalom. 12 They should be ashamed of their detestable deeds, but they are not ashamed at all, they don't know how to blush. So when others fall, they too will fall; when I punish them, they will stumble,' says Adonai .
