13. But you planted evil, and you harvested trouble. You ate the fruit of your lies, because you had trusted in your power and your soldiers.
14. So your armies will hear the noise of battle, and all your fortresses will be destroyed. It will be like the time Shalman destroyed Beth Arbel. At that time of war, mothers were killed with their children.
15. And this will happen to you at Bethel, because you did so many evil things. When that day begins, the king of Israel will be fully destroyed.
