Rejoice{H8055} not, O Israel,{H3478} for joy,{H1524} like the peoples;{H5971} for thou hast played the harlot,{H2181} [departing] from thy God;{H430} thou hast loved{H157} hire{H868} upon every grain-floor.{H1637}

The threshing-floor{H1637} and the winepress{H3342} shall not feed{H7462} them, and the new wine{H8492} shall fail{H3584} her.

They shall not dwell{H3427} in Jehovah's{H3068} land;{H776} but Ephraim{H669} shall return{H7725} to Egypt,{H4714} and they shall eat{H398} unclean{H2931} food in Assyria.{H804}

They shall not pour{H5258} out [wine-]{H3196} [offerings] to Jehovah,{H3068} neither shall they be pleasing{H6149} unto him: their sacrifices{H2077} shall be unto them as the bread{H3899} of mourners;{H205} all that eat{H398} thereof shall be polluted;{H2930} for their bread{H3899} shall be for their appetite;{H5315} it shall not come{H935} into the house{H1004} of Jehovah.{H3068}

What will ye do{H6213} in the day{H3117} of solemn{H4150} assembly, and in the day{H3117} of the feast{H2282} of Jehovah?{H3068}

For, lo, they are gone{H1980} away from destruction;{H7701} [yet] Egypt{H4714} shall gather them up,{H6908} Memphis{H4644} shall bury{H6912} them; their pleasant{H4261} things of silver,{H3701} nettles{H7057} shall possess{H3423} them; thorns{H2336} shall be in their tents.{H168}

The days{H3117} of visitation{H6486} are come,{H935} the days{H3117} of recompense{H7966} are come;{H935} Israel{H3478} shall know{H3045} it: the prophet{H5030} is a fool,{H191} the man{H376} that hath the spirit{H7307} is mad,{H7696} for the abundance{H7230} of thine iniquity,{H5771} and because the enmity{H4895} is great.{H7227}

Ephraim{H669} [was] a watchman{H6822} with my God:{H430} as for the prophet,{H5030} a fowler's{H3352} snare{H6341} is in all his ways,{H1870} [and] enmity{H4895} in the house{H1004} of his God.{H430}

They have deeply{H6009} corrupted{H7843} themselves, as in the days{H3117} of Gibeah:{H1390} he will remember{H2142} their iniquity,{H5771} he will visit{H6485} their sins.{H2403}

I found{H4672} Israel{H3478} like grapes{H6025} in the wilderness;{H4057} I saw{H7200} your fathers{H1} as the first-ripe{H1063} in the fig-tree{H8384} at its first season:{H7225} but they came{H935} to Baal-peor,{H1187} and consecrated{H5144} themselves unto the shameful{H1322} thing, and became abominable{H8251} like that which they loved.{H157}

As for Ephraim,{H669} their glory{H3519} shall fly away{H5774} like a bird:{H5775} there shall be no birth,{H3205} and none with child,{H990} and no conception.{H2032}

Though they bring up{H1431} their children,{H1121} yet will I bereave{H7921} them, so that not a man{H120} shall be left: yea, woe{H188} also to them when I depart{H5493} from them!

Ephraim,{H669} like as I have seen{H7200} Tyre,{H6865} is planted{H8362} in a pleasant place:{H5116} but Ephraim{H669} shall bring out{H3318} his children{H1121} to the slayer.{H2026}

Give{H5414} them, O Jehovah—what{H3068} wilt thou give?{H5414} give{H5414} them a miscarrying{H7921} womb{H7358} and dry{H6784} breasts.{H7699}

All their wickedness{H7451} is in Gilgal;{H1537} for there I hated{H8130} them: because of the wickedness{H7455} of their doings{H4611} I will drive them out{H1644} of my house;{H1004} I will love{H160} them no more;{H3254} all their princes{H8269} are revolters.{H5637}

Ephraim{H669} is smitten,{H5221} their root{H8328} is dried up,{H3001} they shall bear{H6213} no fruit:{H6529} yea, though they bring forth,{H3205} yet will I slay{H4191} the beloved{H4261} fruit of their womb.{H990}

My God{H430} will cast them away,{H3988} because they did not hearken{H8085} unto him; and they shall be wanderers{H5074} among the nations.{H1471}
