4 They appointed kings without my consent and chose princes without my knowledge. With their silver and gold they made idols for their own destruction.

5 Let Samaria throw out his calf idol! My anger burns against them! How long will it be until they are capable of purity?
6 This idol is from Israel! A craftsman made it—it's not God! The calf of Samaria will be broken in pieces!
6 Porque de Israel es, y artífice lo hizo; que no es Dios: por lo que en pedazos será deshecho el becerro de Samaria.
6 For this is even from Israel! The workman made it, and it is no God; indeed, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.

10 Even though they have hired allies among the nations, I will gather them together. Then they will writhe under the burden of the great king.
10 Aunque alquilen á las gentes, ahora las juntaré; y serán un poco afligidos por la carga del rey y de los príncipes.
10 But although they sold themselves among the nations, I will now gather them; and they begin to waste away because of the oppression of the king of mighty ones.

14 Olvidó pues Israel á su Hacedor, y edificó templos, y Judá multiplicó ciudades fuertes: mas yo meteré fuego en sus ciudades, el cual devorará sus palacios.
