HEN Ephraim spoke, a horror seized Israel: and he sinned in Baal and died.
And now they have sinned more and more: and they have made to themselves a molten thing of their silver as the likeness of idols: the whole is the work of craftsmen: to these that say: Sacrifice men, ye that adore calves.
Therefore they shall be as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away, as the dust that is driven with a whirlwind out of the floor, and as the smoke out of the chimney.

But I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt: and thou shalt know no God but me, and there is no saviour beside me.
I knew thee in the desert, in the land of the wilderness.
According to their pastures they were filled, and were made full: and they lifted up their heart, and have forgotten me.
And I will be to them as a lioness, as a leopard in the way of the Assyrians.
I will meet them as a bear that is robbed of her whelps, and I will rend the inner parts of their liver: and I will devour them there as a lion, the beast of the field shall tear them.
•
Destruction is thy own, O Israel: thy help is only in me.
Where is thy king? now especially let him save thee in all thy cities: and thy judges, of whom thou saidst: Give me kings and princes.
I will give thee a king in my wrath, and will take him away in my indignation.
•
The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up, his sin is hidden.
The sorrows of a woman in labour shall come upon him, he is an unwise son: for now he shall not stand in the breach of the children.
•
I will deliver them out of the hand of death. I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy death; O hell, I will be thy bite: comfort is hidden from my eyes.
