Hosea 11:12--12:14

Ephraim
<0669>
compasseth
<05437> (8804)
me about with lies
<03585>_,
and the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
with deceit
<04820>_:
but Judah
<03063>
yet ruleth
<07300> (8804)
with God
<0410>_,
and is faithful
<0539> (8737)
with the saints
<06918>_.
{saints: or, most holy}
Ephraim
<0669>
feedeth
<07462> (8802)
on wind
<07307>_,
and followeth
<07291> (8802)
after the east wind
<06921>_:
he daily
<03117>
increaseth
<07235> (8686)
lies
<03577>
and desolation
<07701>_;
and they do make
<03772> (8799)
a covenant
<01285>
with the Assyrians
<0804>_,
and oil
<08081>
is carried
<02986> (8714)
into Egypt
<04714>_.
The LORD
<03068>
hath also a controversy
<07379>
with Judah
<03063>_,
and will punish
<06485> (8800)
Jacob
<03290>
according to his ways
<01870>_;
according to his doings
<04611>
will he recompense
<07725> (8686)
him. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
He took his brother
<0251>
by the heel
<06117> (8804)
in the womb
<0990>_,
and by his strength
<0202>
he had power
<08280> (8804)
with God
<0430>_:
{had...: Heb. was a prince, or, behaved himself princely}
Yea, he had power
<07786> (8799)
over the angel
<04397>_,
and prevailed
<03201> (8799)_:
he wept
<01058> (8804)_,
and made supplication
<02603> (8691)
unto him: he found
<04672> (8799)
him [in] Bethel
<01008>_,
and there he spake
<01696> (8762)
with us;
Even the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_;
the LORD
<03068>
[is] his memorial
<02143>_.
Therefore turn
<07725> (8799)
thou to thy God
<0430>_:
keep
<08104> (8798)
mercy
<02617>
and judgment
<04941>_,
and wait
<06960> (8761)
on thy God
<0430>
continually
<08548>_.
[He is] a merchant
<03667>_,
the balances
<03976>
of deceit
<04820>
[are] in his hand
<03027>_:
he loveth
<0157> (8804)
to oppress
<06231> (8800)_.
{a merchant: or, Canaan} {oppress: or, deceive}
And Ephraim
<0669>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Yet I am become rich
<06238> (8804)_,
I have found me out
<04672> (8804)
substance
<0202>_:
[in] all my labours
<03018>
they shall find
<04672> (8799)
none iniquity
<05771>
in me that [were] sin
<02399>_.
{in all...: or, all my labours suffice me not: he shall have punishment of iniquity in whom is sin} {that: Heb. which}
And I [that am] the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
from the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
will yet make thee to dwell
<03427> (8686)
in tabernacles
<0168>_,
as in the days
<03117>
of the solemn feast
<04150>_.
I have also spoken
<01696> (8765)
by the prophets
<05030>_,
and I have multiplied
<07235> (8689)
visions
<02377>_,
and used similitudes
<01819> (8762)_,
by the ministry
<03027>
of the prophets
<05030>_.
{ministry: Heb. hand}
[Is there] iniquity
<0205>
[in] Gilead
<01568>_?
surely they are vanity
<07723>_:
they sacrifice
<02076> (8765)
bullocks
<07794>
in Gilgal
<01537>_;
yea, their altars
<04196>
[are] as heaps
<01530>
in the furrows
<08525>
of the fields
<07704>_.
And Jacob
<03290>
fled
<01272> (8799)
into the country
<07704>
of Syria
<0758>_,
and Israel
<03478>
served
<05647> (8799)
for a wife
<0802>_,
and for a wife
<0802>
he kept
<08104> (8804)
[sheep].
And by a prophet
<05030>
the LORD
<03068>
brought
<05927> (8689)
Israel
<03478>
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
and by a prophet
<05030>
was he preserved
<08104> (8738)_.
Ephraim
<0669>
provoked [him] to anger
<03707> (8689)
most bitterly
<08563>_:
therefore shall he leave
<05203> (8799)
his blood
<01818>
upon him, and his reproach
<02781>
shall his Lord
<0113>
return
<07725> (8686)
unto him. {most...: Heb. with bitternesses} {blood: Heb. bloods}
