1-2. Israel was once a lush vine,bountiful in grapes.The more lavish the harvest,the more promiscuous the worship.The more money they got,the more they squandered on gods-in-their-own-image.Their sweet smiles are sheer lies.They’re guilty as sin.God will smash their worship shrines,pulverize their god-images.
3-4. They go around saying,“Who needs a king?We couldn’t care less about God,so why bother with a king?What difference would he make?”They talk big,lie through their teeth,make deals.But their high-sounding wordsturn out to be empty words, litter in the gutters.
