Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
BSB
Berean Standard Bible
When Ephraim speaketh
tremblingly
, He hath
been
lifted
up
in Israel ,
When
he becometh
guilty
in
Baal he dieth
.
When Ephraim spoke
, there
was
trembling;
he was
exalted
in Israel .
But
he incurred
guilt
through
Baal ,
and
he died
.
And
now do
they add
to
sin ,
And make to
them
a
molten
image
of
their
silver
, By
their
own
understanding
--
idols, A
work
of
artizans
--
all of it,
Of
them they
say ,
who
`are'
sacrificers
among
men
, `
The calves let
them
kiss.'
Now they sin more
and more
and
make for
themselves
cast
images
, idols skillfully
made
from
their
silver
, all of them the
work
of
craftsmen.
People
say of
them
, “They
offer
human
sacrifice
and
kiss
the calves !”
Therefore they are
as
a
cloud
of
the morning ,
And
as
dew
, rising
early ,
going
away
, As
chaff tossed
about
out
of
a floor, And
as
smoke out
of
a
window.
Therefore they will
be
like
the morning mist
, like
the
early dew
that
vanishes
, like
chaff blown
from
a threshing
floor, like
smoke through
an
open
window.
And
I `
am '
Jehovah
thy
God from
the land of Egypt ,
And
a
God besides
Me thou
dost
not
know
, And
a
Saviour
--
there is none
save
Me.
Yet
I am the
LORD
your
God ever
since
the land of Egypt ;
you
know
no
God but
Me, for
there is no
Savior
besides
Me.
I --
I
have
known
thee
in a
wilderness, In a
land of droughts
.
I knew
you
in the
wilderness, in the
land of drought
.
According
to
their
feedings
they are
satiated
, They have
been
satiated
, And
their heart
is
lifted
up
, Therefore
they have
forgotten
Me ,
When
they had
pasture
, they became
satisfied;
when
they
were
satisfied
, their hearts
became
proud
, and
as
a
result
they forgot
Me .
And
I
am
to
them
as
a lion ,
As
a leopard by the way
I
look
out
.
So
like
a lion I
will
pounce
on
them;
like
a leopard I
will
lurk
by the path
.
I
do
meet
them
as
a bereaved
bear, And I rend
the
enclosure
of
their heart
.
Like
a bear robbed
of
her
cubs
I
will
attack
them
, and I will
tear
open
their chests
. There
I
will
devour
them
like
a
lion,
like
a
wild
beast
would
tear
them
apart.
And
I
consume
them
there
as
a
lioness
, A
beast
of
the
field
doth
rend
them
.
You
are
destroyed
, O
Israel,
because
you
are
against
Me—
against
your
helper
.
Thou
hast
destroyed
thyself,
O
Israel,
But
in
Me
`is'
thy
help,
Where `
is '
thy
king now --
And
he
doth
save thee
in all thy
cities ?
And thy
judges
of
whom thou
didst
say
, `
Give to
me a king and heads
? '
Where is your
king now to
save you
in all your
cities ,
and the
rulers
to
whom you
said
, “
Give me a king and princes”
?
I give
to
thee
a king in
Mine
anger
, And I
take
away
in My wrath.
So
in
My
anger
I gave
you
a king, and in My wrath I
took
him
away
.
Bound
up
`is'
the iniquity of Ephraim ,
Hidden
`
is '
his sin ,
The iniquity of Ephraim is bound
up;
his sin is
stored
up.
Pangs
of
a
travailing
woman
come to
him, He `
is '
a
son not
wise,
For
he
remaineth
not
the time for
the breaking
forth
of sons
.
Labor
pains
come upon
him, but
he is an
unwise
son .
When
the time arrives,
he
fails
to
present
himself
at
the opening
of the
womb
.
From the hand
of Sheol I do
ransom
them ,
From death I
redeem
them,
Where `is'
thy
plague
, O death? Where thy
destruction
, O Sheol? Repentance
is hid
from Mine
eyes.
I
will
ransom
them
from the power
of Sheol ;
I will
redeem
them from Death .
Where, O Death ,
are
your
plagues
? Where, O Sheol ,
is
your
sting
? Compassion
is hidden
from My
eyes.
Though
he among brethren
produceth
fruit
, Come
in
doth
an east wind ,
a wind of
Jehovah,
From a
wilderness
it
is
coming
up,
And
it
drieth
up his fountain, And become
dry
doth
his spring ,
It
--
it
spoileth
a
treasure
--
every desirable
vessel
.
Although
he flourishes
among his
brothers
, an east wind will
come—
a wind from the
LORD
rising
up from
the
desert.
His fountain will
fail
, and his spring will
run
dry.
The
wind
will
plunder
his
treasury
of
every precious
article
.
Become
desolate
doth
Samaria ,
Because she hath
rebelled against her God ,
By
sword
they do
fall ,
Their sucklings
are
dashed in
pieces, And its
pregnant ones
are
ripped up!
Samaria will
bear
her
guilt
because she has
rebelled against her God .
They will
fall by
the
sword;
their little
ones
will
be
dashed to
pieces, and their
pregnant women
ripped open.
