Context Reading
3“But draw near here, you sons of a sorceress,you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes. 4Whom do you mock?Against whom do you make a wide mouthand stick out your tongue?Aren’t you children of disobedienceand offspring of falsehood, 5you who inflame yourselves among the oaks,under every green tree;who kill the children in the valleys,under the clefts of the rocks? 6Among the smooth stones of the valley is your portion.They, they are your lot.You have even poured a drink offering to them.You have offered an offering.Shall I be appeased for these things? 7On a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed.You also went up there to offer sacrifice.
