When I would have healedH7495 IsraelH3478, then the iniquityH5771 of EphraimH669 was discoveredH1540, and the wickednessH7451 of SamariaH8111: for they commitH6466 falsehoodH8267; and the thiefH1590 cometh inH935, and the troopH1416 of robbers spoilethH6584 withoutH2351. {wickedness: Heb. evils} {spoileth: Heb. strippeth}
And they considerH559 not in their heartsH3824 that I rememberH2142 all their wickednessH7451: now their own doingsH4611 have beset them aboutH5437; they are before my faceH6440. {consider…: Heb. say not to}
They make the kingH4428 gladH8055 with their wickednessH7451, and the princesH8269 with their liesH3585.
They are all adulterersH5003, as an ovenH8574 heatedH1197 by the bakerH644, who ceasethH7673 from raisingH5782 after he hath kneadedH3888 the doughH1217, until it be leavenedH2556. {who…: or, the raiser will cease} {raising: or, waking}
In the dayH3117 of our kingH4428 the princesH8269 have made him sickH2470 with bottlesH2534 of wineH3196; he stretched outH4900 his handH3027 with scornersH3945. {bottles…: or, heat through wine}
For they have made readyH7126 their heartH3820 like an ovenH8574, whiles they lie in waitH693: their bakerH644 sleepethH3463 all the nightH3915; in the morningH1242 it burnethH1197 as a flamingH3852 fireH784. {made…: or, applied}
They are all hotH2552 as an ovenH8574, and have devouredH398 their judgesH8199; all their kingsH4428 are fallenH5307: there is none among them that callethH7121 unto me.
EphraimH669, he hath mixedH1101 himself among the peopleH5971; EphraimH669 is a cakeH5692 not turnedH2015.
StrangersH2114 have devouredH398 his strengthH3581, and he knowethH3045 it not: yea, gray hairsH7872 are here and thereH2236 upon him, yet he knowethH3045 not. {here…: Heb. sprinkled}
And the prideH1347 of IsraelH3478 testifiethH6030 to his faceH6440: and they do not returnH7725 to the LORDH3068 their GodH430, nor seekH1245 him for all this.
EphraimH669 also is like a sillyH6601 doveH3123 without heartH3820: they callH7121 to EgyptH4714, they goH1980 to AssyriaH804.
When they shall goH3212, I will spreadH6566 my netH7568 upon them; I will bring them downH3381 as the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064; I will chastiseH3256 them, as their congregationH5712 hath heardH8088.
WoeH188 unto them! for they have fledH5074 from me: destructionH7701 unto them! because they have transgressedH6586 against me: though I have redeemedH6299 them, yet they have spokenH1696 liesH3577 against me. {destruction: Heb. spoil}
And they have not criedH2199 unto me with their heartH3820, when they howledH3213 upon their bedsH4904: they assembleH1481 themselves for cornH1715 and wineH8492, and they rebelH5493 against me.
Though I have boundH3256 and strengthenedH2388 their armsH2220, yet do they imagineH2803 mischiefH7451 against me. {have…: or, chastened}
They returnH7725, but not to the most HighH5920: they are like a deceitfulH7423 bowH7198: their princesH8269 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719 for the rageH2195 of their tongueH3956: thisH2097 shall be their derisionH3933 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

And the prideH1347 of IsraelH3478 doth testifyH6030 to his faceH6440: therefore shall IsraelH3478 and EphraimH669 fallH3782 in their iniquityH5771; JudahH3063 also shall fallH3782 with them.
They are all hotH2552 as an ovenH8574, and have devouredH398 their judgesH8199; all their kingsH4428 are fallenH5307: there is none among them that callethH7121 unto me.
The wickedH7563, through the prideH1363 of his countenanceH639, will not seekH1875 after God: GodH430 is not in all his thoughtsH4209. {God is…: or, all his thoughts are, There is no God}
Therefore the showersH7241 have been withholdenH4513, and there hath been no latter rainH4456; and thou hadst a whore'sH2181+H802 foreheadH4696, thou refusedstH3985 to be ashamedH3637.
ComeH3212, and let us returnH7725 unto the LORDH3068: for he hath tornH2963, and he will healH7495 us; he hath smittenH5221, and he will bind us upH2280.
The LORDH3068 looked downH8259 from heavenH8064 upon the childrenH1121 of menH120, to seeH7200 if thereH3426 were any that did understandH7919, and seekH1875 GodH430.
Though thou shouldest brayH3806 a foolH191 in a mortarH4388 amongH8432 wheatH7383 with a pestleH5940, yet will not his foolishnessH200 departH5493 from him.
GodH430 looked downH8259 from heavenH8064 upon the childrenH1121 of menH120, to seeH7200 if there wereH3426 any that did understandH7919, that did seekH1875 GodH430.
For the peopleH5971 turnethH7725 not unto him that smitethH5221 them, neither do they seekH1875 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
There isG2076 noneG3756 that understandethG4920, there isG2076 noneG3756 that seeketh afterG1567 GodG2316.
Why then is this peopleH5971 of JerusalemH3389 slidden backH7725 by a perpetualH5329 backslidingH4878? they holdH2388 fast deceitH8649, they refuseH3985 to returnH7725.
I hearkenedH7181 and heardH8085, but they spake not arightH1696: no manH376 repentedH5162 him ofH5921 his wickednessH7451, sayingH559, What have I doneH6213? every one turnedH7725 to his courseH4794, as the horseH5483 rushethH7857 into the battleH4421.
They saidH559, Turn ye againH7725 now every oneH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870, and from the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611, and dwellH3427 in the landH127 that the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 unto you and to your fathersH1 forH5704 everH5769 and everH5769:
And goH3212 not afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them, and to worshipH7812 them, and provoke me not to angerH3707 with the worksH4639 of your handsH3027; and I will do you no hurtH7489.
Yet ye have not hearkenedH8085 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; that ye might provoke me to angerH3707 with the worksH4639 of your handsH3027 to your own hurtH7451.
I have sentH7971 also unto you all my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, rising up earlyH7925 and sendingH7971 them, sayingH559, ReturnH7725 ye now every manH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870, and amendH3190 your doingsH4611, and goH3212 not afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them, and ye shall dwell inH3427 the landH127 which I have givenH5414 to you and to your fathersH1: but ye have not inclinedH5186 your earH241, nor hearkenedH8085 unto me.
Because the sonsH1121 of JonadabH3082 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394 have performedH6965 the commandmentH4687 of their fatherH1, which he commandedH6680 them; but this peopleH5971 hath not hearkenedH8085 unto me:
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935 upon JudahH3063 and upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 all the evilH7451 that I have pronouncedH1696 against them: because I have spokenH1696 unto them, but they have not heardH8085; and I have calledH7121 unto them, but they have not answeredH6030.
And I also have givenH5414 you cleannessH5356 of teethH8127 in all your citiesH5892, and wantH2640 of breadH3899 in all your placesH4725: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And also I have withholdenH4513 the rainH1653 from you, when there were yet threeH7969 monthsH2320 to the harvestH7105: and I caused it to rainH4305 upon oneH259 cityH5892, and caused it not to rainH4305 upon anotherH259 cityH5892: oneH259 pieceH2513 was rainedH4305 upon, and the pieceH2513 whereupon it rainedH4305 not witheredH3001.
So twoH8147 or threeH7969 citiesH5892 wanderedH5128 unto oneH259 cityH5892, to drinkH8354 waterH4325; but they were not satisfiedH7646: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
I have smittenH5221 you with blastingH7711 and mildewH3420: when your gardensH1593 and your vineyardsH3754 and your fig treesH8384 and your olive treesH2132 increasedH7235, the palmerwormH1501 devouredH398 them: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {when…: or, the multitude of your gardens, etc. did the palmerworm}
I have sentH7971 among you the pestilenceH1698 after the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714: your young menH970 have I slainH2026 with the swordH2719, and have taken awayH7628 your horsesH5483; and I have made the stinkH889 of your campsH4264 to come upH5927 unto your nostrilsH639: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {after…: or, in the way} {and have…: Heb. with the captivity of your horses}
I have overthrownH2015 some of you, as GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and ye were as a firebrandH181 plucked outH5337 of the burningH8316: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Therefore thus will I doH6213 unto thee, O IsraelH3478: and becauseH6118 I will doH6213 this unto thee, prepareH3559 to meetH7125 thy GodH430, O IsraelH3478.
For, lo, he that formethH3335 the mountainsH2022, and createthH1254 the windH7307, and declarethH5046 unto manH120 what is his thoughtH7808, that makethH6213 the morningH7837 darknessH5890, and treadethH1869 upon the high placesH1116 of the earthH776, The LORDH3068, The GodH430 of hostsH6635, is his nameH8034. {wind: or, spirit}
Be ye not as your fathersH1, unto whom the formerH7223 prophetsH5030 have criedH7121, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; TurnH7725 ye now from your evilH7451 waysH1870, and from your evilH7451 doingsH4611: but they did not hearH8085, nor hearkenH7181 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
