Warnings to Northern Israel

28 Look at Samaria!
    The drunks of Ephraim are proud of that city.
It sits on a hill with a rich valley around it.
    The Samarians think their city is a beautiful crown of flowers.
But they are drunk with wine,
    and this “beautiful crown” is just a dying plant.

Look, the Lord has someone who is strong and brave.
    He will come into the country like a storm of hail and rain.
Like a powerful river of water flooding the country,
    he will throw that crown[a] down to the ground.
