ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

Samaria shall be wiped out, because she resisted her God. They shall fall by the sword, and their nursing infants shall be dashed to the ground, and their pregnant women shall be ripped open.
Take words with you and return to the Lord your God. Say to him: that you may not receive injustice but may receive good things; and we will repay the fruit of our lips.
Assour shall by no means save us; we will not mount a horse, and we will no longer say to the works of our hands: You are our gods. He who is in you will have mercy on the orphan.
They shall return and sit under his shelter; they shall live and be made drunk with grain. And his memorial shall blossom like a vine, like the wine of Lebanon.
Who is wise and will understand these things? Or intelligent, and will recognize them? For the ways of the Lord are straight, and the righteous shall walk in them, but the impious shall grow weak in them.
