4 Listen to this message, you cows of Bashan^(A)
who are on the hill of Samaria,
women who oppress the poor
and crush the needy,^(B)
who say to their husbands,
“Bring us something to drink.”^(C)

¹⁴ Shepherd your people^(A) with your staff,^(B)
the flock that is your possession.
They live alone^(C) in a woodland
surrounded by pastures.
Let them graze in Bashan and Gilead^(D)
as in ancient times.^(E)
