13 And I have seen a repulsive thing in the nevi’im of Shomron; they prophesied by Ba’al, and caused My people Yisroel to err.

14 I have seen also in the nevi’im of Yerushalayim a horrible thing; they commit ni’uf and walk in sheker; they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth turn back from his wickedness; they are all of them unto Me as Sodom and the inhabitants thereof as Amora (Gomorrah).

15 Therefore thus saith Hashem Tzva’os concerning the nevi’im; Hineni, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the bitter water of gall; for from the nevi’im of Yerushalayim is chanupah (profaneness) gone forth into kol ha’aretz.

13 “Among the prophets of Samaria
    I saw this repulsive thing:
They prophesied by Baal(A)
    and led my people Israel astray.(B)
14 And among the prophets of Jerusalem

    They commit adultery and live a lie.(D)
They strengthen the hands of evildoers,(E)
    so that not one of them turns from their wickedness.(F)
They are all like Sodom(G) to me;
    the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”(H)

“I will make them eat bitter food
    and drink poisoned water,(I)
because from the prophets of Jerusalem
    ungodliness(J) has spread throughout the land.”
