When I would heal Israel

¹whenever I would heal Israel, Ephraim’s guilt comes to light, and the wicked deeds of Samaria, \q for they deal in lies. \q Thieves break into houses; \q gangs of raiders rob in the streets. ²They never stop to think \q that I remember all their wickedness. \q Now their deeds hem them in; \q they are always in my sight. ³They delight the king with their wickedness, \q and the officials with their lies. ⁴They are all adulterers; \q they are like an oven heated by the baker, \q who stops stirring up the fire \q from the time he kneads the dough until it has risen. ⁵On our king’s festival day \q the officials made him sick with the heat of wine, \q and he joined hands with mockers. ⁶For their hearts are like an oven as they draw near with their schemes; \q all night long their baker sleeps; \q in the morning the oven blazes like a flaming fire. ⁷They are all as hot as an oven, \q and they consume their rulers. \q All their kings have fallen, \q and not one of them calls on me. ⁸Ephraim mixes himself with the nations; \q Ephraim is a flat loaf left unturned. ⁹Foreigners have eaten up his strength, \q but he does not know it; \q gray hairs are scattered on his head, \q but he does not know it. ¹⁰Israel’s pride testifies against him, \q yet they have not returned to the LORD their God \q or sought him in spite of all this. ¹¹Ephraim has become like a dove, \q easily fooled and without sense; \q they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria. ¹²When they go, I will throw my net over them; \q I will bring them down like birds from the sky; \q I will discipline them \q as their assembly has been told.

Woe to them

¹³Woe to them, for they have strayed from me! \q Ruin to them, for they have rebelled against me! \q I would redeem them, \q but they tell lies about me. ¹⁴They do not cry out to me from the heart \q when they wail on their beds. \q They gather together for grain and new wine, and turn away from me. ¹⁵I trained them and strengthened their arms, \q yet they plot evil against me. ¹⁶They turn, but not to the One above; they are like a bow that will not shoot true. \q Their officials will fall by the sword because of their insolent tongues. \q For this they will be laughed at in the land of Egypt.
