[1]EphraimH669 feedethH7462[H8802] on windH7307, and followethH7291[H8802] after the east windH6921: he dailyH3117 increasethH7235[H8686] liesH3577 and desolationH7701; and they do makeH3772[H8799] a covenantH1285 with the AssyriansH804, and oilH8081 is carriedH2986[H8714] into EgyptH4714.
[2]The LORDH3068 hath also a controversyH7379 with JudahH3063, and will punishH6485[H8800] JacobH3290 according to his waysH1870; according to his doingsH4611 will he recompenseH7725 himH8686.
[3]He took his brotherH251 by the heelH6117[H8804] in the wombH990, and by his strengthH202 he had powerH8280[H8804] with GodH430:
[4]Yea, he had powerH7786[H8799] over the angelH4397, and prevailedH3201[H8799]: he weptH1058[H8804], and made supplicationH2603[H8691] unto him: he foundH4672[H8799] him in BethelH1008, and there he spakeH1696 with usH8762;
[5]Even the LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635; the LORDH3068 is his memorialH2143.
[6]Therefore turnH7725[H8799] thou to thy GodH430: keepH8104[H8798] mercyH2617 and judgmentH4941, and waitH6960[H8761] on thy GodH430 continuallyH8548.
[7]He is a merchantH3667, the balancesH3976 of deceitH4820 are in his handH3027: he lovethH157[H8804] to oppressH6231.[H8800]
[8]And EphraimH669 saidH559[H8799], Yet I am become richH6238[H8804], I have found me outH4672[H8804] substanceH202: in all my laboursH3018 they shall findH4672[H8799] none iniquityH5771 in me that were sinH2399.
[9]And I that am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714 will yet make thee to dwellH3427[H8686] in tabernaclesH168, as in the daysH3117 of the solemn feastH4150.
[10]I have also spokenH1696[H8765] by the prophetsH5030, and I have multipliedH7235[H8689] visionsH2377, and used similitudesH1819[H8762], by the ministryH3027 of the prophetsH5030.
[11]Is there iniquityH205 in GileadH1568? surely they are vanityH7723: they sacrificeH2076[H8765] bullocksH7794 in GilgalH1537; yea, their altarsH4196 are as heapsH1530 in the furrowsH8525 of the fieldsH7704.
[12]And JacobH3290 fledH1272[H8799] into the countryH7704 of SyriaH758, and IsraelH3478 servedH5647[H8799] for a wifeH802, and for a wifeH802 he keptH8104 sheepH8804.
[13]And by a prophetH5030 the LORDH3068 broughtH5927[H8689] IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, and by a prophetH5030 was he preservedH8104.[H8738]
[14]EphraimH669 provoked him to angerH3707[H8689] most bitterlyH8563: therefore shall he leaveH5203[H8799] his bloodH1818 upon him, and his reproachH2781 shall his LordH113 returnH7725 unto himH8686.
