YHWH speaks to Israel: "You cows of Bashan! You women who oppress the poor and crush the needy, who nag your husbands, 'Bring me a drink!'
"Disaster is coming."
Verse 6 - "I sent famine. And you got hungry. But you didn't get hungry for me. You ignored me."
Verse 7 - "I sent drought. And you got thirsty. But you didn't get thirsty for me. You ignored me."
Next few verses - "I ruined your crops. I sent you plagues. I brought war to your doorstep. I overthrew some of your towns. And you ignored, ignored, ignored, ignored me."
Verse 12 - "So, prepare to meet your God!"
