1 RejoiceH8055 not, O Israel,H3478 for joy,H1524 as other people:H5971 for thou hast gone a whoringH2181 from thy God,H430 thou hast lovedH157 a rewardH868 upon every cornfloorH1715, H1637. 2 The floorH1637 and the winepressH3342 shall not feedH7462 them, and the new wineH8492 shall failH3584 in her. 3 They shall not dwellH3427 in the LORD'SH3068 land;H776 but EphraimH669 shall returnH7725 to Egypt,H4714 and they shall eatH398 uncleanH2931 things in Assyria.H804 4 They shall not offerH5258 wineH3196 offerings to the LORD,H3068 neither shall they be pleasingH6149 unto him: their sacrificesH2077 shall be unto them as the breadH3899 of mourners;H205 all that eatH398 thereof shall be polluted:H2930 for their breadH3899 for their soulH5315 shall not comeH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORD.H3068 5 What will ye doH6213 in the solemnH4150 day,H3117 and in the dayH3117 of the feastH2282 of the LORD?H3068 6 For, lo, they are goneH1980 because of destruction:H7701 EgyptH4714 shall gather them up,H6908 MemphisH4644 shall buryH6912 them: the pleasantH4261 places for their silver,H3701 nettlesH7057 shall possessH3423 them: thornsH2336 shall be in their tabernacles.H168 7 The daysH3117 of visitationH6486 are come,H935 the daysH3117 of recompenceH7966 are come;H935 IsraelH3478 shall knowH3045 it: the prophetH5030 is a fool,H191 the spiritualH7307 manH376 is mad,H7696 for the multitudeH7230 of thine iniquity,H5771 and the greatH7227 hatred.H4895 8 The watchmanH6822 of EphraimH669 was with my God:H430 but the prophetH5030 is a snareH6341 of a fowlerH3352 in all his ways,H1870 and hatredH4895 in the houseH1004 of his God.H430 9 They have deeplyH6009 corruptedH7843 themselves, as in the daysH3117 of Gibeah:H1390 therefore he will rememberH2142 their iniquity,H5771 he will visitH6485 their sins.H2403 10 I foundH4672 IsraelH3478 like grapesH6025 in the wilderness;H4057 I sawH7200 your fathersH1 as the firstripeH1063 in the fig treeH8384 at her first time:H7225 but they wentH935 to Baalpeor,H1187 and separatedH5144 themselves unto that shame;H1322 and their abominationsH8251 were according as they loved.H157 11 As for Ephraim,H669 their gloryH3519 shall fly awayH5774 like a bird,H5775 from the birth,H3205 and from the womb,H990 and from the conception.H2032 12 Though they bring upH1431 their children,H1121 yet will I bereaveH7921 them, that there shall not be a manH120 left: yea, woeH188 also to them when I departH5493 from them! 13 Ephraim,H669 as I sawH7200 Tyrus,H6865 is plantedH8362 in a pleasant place:H5116 but EphraimH669 shall bring forthH3318 his childrenH1121 to the murderer.H2026 14 GiveH5414 them, O LORD:H3068 what wilt thou give?H5414 giveH5414 them a miscarryingH7921 wombH7358 and dryH6784 breasts.H7699 15 All their wickednessH7451 is in Gilgal:H1537 for there I hatedH8130 them: for the wickednessH7455 of their doingsH4611 I will drive them outH1644 of mine house,H1004 I will loveH160 them no more:H3254 all their princesH8269 are revolters.H5637 16 EphraimH669 is smitten,H5221 their rootH8328 is dried up,H3001 they shall bearH6213 no fruit:H6529 yea, though they bring forth,H3205 yet will I slayH4191 even the belovedH4261 fruit of their womb.H990 17 My GodH430 will cast them away,H3988 because they did not hearkenH8085 unto him: and they shall be wanderersH5074 among the nations.H1471
