15 “For the Lord will strike Israel, just as a reed sways in the water; and (A)He will uproot Israel from (B)this good land which He gave to their fathers, and (C)will scatter them beyond the Euphrates River, (D)because they have made their [a]Asherim, provoking the Lord to anger. 16 He will give up Israel (E)because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he [b]committed and with which he misled Israel into sin.”
