1
我想醫治以色列的時候，以法蓮的罪孽和撒瑪利亞的罪惡就顯露出來。他們行事虛謊，內有賊人入室偷竊，外有強盜成群騷擾。
2
他們心裡並不思想我記念他們的一切惡；他們所行的現在纏繞他們，都在我面前。
3
他們行惡使君王歡喜，說謊使首領喜樂。
4
他們都是行淫的，像火爐被烤餅的燒熱，從摶麵到發麵的時候，暫不使火著旺。
5
在我們王宴樂的日子，首領因酒的烈性成病；王與褻慢人拉手。
6
首領埋伏的時候，心中熱如火爐，就如烤餅的整夜睡臥，到了早晨火氣炎炎。
7
眾民也熱如火爐，燒滅他們的官長。他們的君王都仆倒而死；他們中間無一人求告我。
9
外邦人吞吃他勞力得來的，他卻不知道；頭髮斑白，他也不覺得。
10
以色列的驕傲當面見證自己，雖遭遇這一切，他們仍不歸向耶和華─他們的神，也不尋求他。
12
他們去的時候，我必將我的網撒在他們身上；我要打下他們，如同空中的鳥。我必按他們會眾所聽見的懲罰他們。
13
他們因離棄我，必定有禍；因違背我，必被毀滅。我雖要救贖他們，他們卻向我說謊。

382. "Neither shall the sun strike them, nor any heat." This symbolically means that hereafter they will not possess lusts for evil, nor for the falsity accompanying evil.
That the sun will not strike them means, symbolically, that they will not have lusts for evil; and that no heat will strike them means, symbolically, that they will not have lusts for falsity. To be shown that the sun symbolizes Divine love and therefore affections for goodness, and in an opposite sense, diabolical love and therefore lusts for evil, see no. 53 above.
That heat, on the other hand, symbolizes lusts for the falsity accompanying evil - the reason is that evil produces falsity, as the sun does heat; for when the will loves evil, the intellect loves falsity, and it burns with a lust to justify the evil, and evil justified in the intellect is the falsity of evil. The falsity accompanying evil is therefore evil in its true expression.
Heat and burning have like symbolic meanings in the following passages:
Blessed is the man who trusts in Jehovah... He will not see when heat comes. (Jeremiah 17:7-8)
...you have been... a refuge for the needy... from flood, a shade from the heat... He will temper... heat by the shadow of a cloud... (Isaiah 25:4-5)
When they are inflamed, I will... make them drunk, until they... sleep a perpetual sleep... (Jeremiah 51:39)
They are all as hot as an oven... None among them calls upon Me. (Hosea 7:7)
They regard not the way of the vineyards. Drought and heat snatch away the snow's waters... (Job 24:18-19)
...the fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was given to him to scorch men... with great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God... (Revelation 16:8-9)
To say to the prisoners, "Go forth."... They shall neither hunger nor thirst, neither shall heat... strike them. (Isaiah 49:9-10)
