¹ REJOICE not, O Yashar'el, for joy, as other people: for you have gone a whoring from your Elohiym, you have loved a reward upon every threshingfloor.

² The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her.

³ They shall not dwell in Yahuah's land; but Ephrayim shall return to Mitsrayim, and they shall eat unclean things in Ashshur.

⁴ They shall not offer wine offerings to Yahuah, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of Yahuah.

⁵ What will ye do in the solemn day, and in the day of the Feast of Yahuah?

⁶ For, lo, they are gone because of destruction: Mitsrayim shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns shall be in their tabernacles.

⁷ The days of visitation are come, the days of recompence are come; Yashar'el shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of your iniquity, and the great hatred.

⁸ The watchman of Ephrayim was with my Elohiym: but the prophet is a snare of a fowler in all his ways, and hatred in the house of his Elohiym.

⁹ They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Giv'ah: therefore he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.

¹⁰ I found Yashar'el like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the firstripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Ba`al Pe`or, and separated themselves unto that shame; and their abominations were according as they loved.

¹¹ As for Ephrayim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.

¹² Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, that there shall not be a man left: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!

¹³ Ephrayim, as I saw Tsor, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephrayim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.

¹⁴ Give them, O Yahuah: what will you give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

¹⁵ All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of my house, I will love them no more: all their princes are revolters.

¹⁶ Ephrayim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb.

¹⁷ My Elohiym will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
