Ephraim continually feeds on the wind; he chases the east wind all day; he multiplies lies and violence. They make treaties 1  with Assyria, and send olive oil as tribute 2  to Egypt.

NET © Notes

tn Heb “a treaty” (so NIV, NRSV); KJV, NASB “a covenant”; NAB “comes to terms.”

tn The phrase “as tribute” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for clarity. Cf. NCV “send a gift of olive oil.”
