8 The Israelites captured 200,000 women, boys, and girls from their relatives [the Judeans]. They also took a lot of goods from Judah and brought them to Samaria.
9 A prophet of the LORD named Oded was there. He went to meet the army coming home to Samaria. He said to them, "The LORD God of your ancestors handed Judah over to you in his anger. You killed them in a rage that reaches up to heaven.
10 Now you intend to enslave the men and women of Judah and Jerusalem. But aren't you also guilty of sinning against the LORD your God?
11 Listen to me. Return these prisoners you have captured from your relatives, because the LORD is very angry with you."
