The men of Israel have become as sinful
    as the men of Gibeah[a] were.
The Lord will remember the evil things they have done.
    He will punish them for their sins.

10 “When I found Israel,
    it was like finding grapes in the desert.
Your ancestors were like
    finding the first figs on the tree.
But when they came to Baal Peor,
    they began worshiping an idol.
    They became as disgusting as the thing they worshiped.
11 Israel’s glory will fly away like a bird.
    There will be no more pregnancies, no more births, no more babies.
