15 Though he (A)flourishes among the [a]reeds,
An (B)east wind will come,
The wind of the Lord coming up from the wilderness;
And his fountain will (C)become dry
And his spring will dry up;
It will (D)plunder his treasury of every precious article.
16 [b]Samaria will pay the penalty for her (E)guilt,
Because she has (F)rebelled against her God.
(G)They will fall by the (H)sword,
Their children will be [c](I)slaughtered,
And their pregnant (J)women will be ripped open.
