They that swear by; who now do, as formerly they have done, trust in, sacrifice to, and swear by; who are obstinate idolaters, and trust to those lies. The sin, that which was the sin, the occasion of the sin, of Samaria, the calves at Dan and Beth-el. And say, think, profess, and swear too, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; the idol at Dan is the true and living God. The manner of, the idols at, Beer-sheba, to which the zealous, mad, and bigoted idolaters in Israel made their pilgrimages. They shall fall, be consumed by famine, sword, and captivity, and never rise up again; never return out of captivity, nor recover of this consumption.
