Verse
KJV
King James Version
BSB
Berean Standard Bible
When I would
have
healed
Israel, then
the iniquity of Ephraim was
discovered
, and
the wickedness
of Samaria :
for they commit
falsehood;
and the
thief
cometh
in ,
and
the troop
of
robbers
spoileth
without
.
When I heal
Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim will
be
exposed
, as
well
as
the crimes
of Samaria .
For they practice
deceit
and thieves
break
in ;
bandits
raid
in
the streets
.
And
they consider not
in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness:
now their own
doings
have
beset
them about
; they are before my face.
But
they fail
to
consider in their hearts that I remember all their evil.
Now their deeds
are
all
around
them; they are before My face.
They make
the king glad
with their wickedness
, and the princes with their lies.
They delight
the king with their evil
, and the princes with their lies.
They are all adulterers, as
an oven heated by the
baker ,
who ceaseth
from raising
after
he
hath
kneaded
the dough ,
until
it
be
leavened
.
They are all adulterers, like
an oven heated by a
baker who needs
not
stoke
the
fire
from the kneading
to
the
rising
of
the
dough.
In
the day of our king the
princes
have
made
him
sick
with
bottles
of
wine
; he stretched
out
his
hand
with scorners
.
The princes
are
inflamed
with
wine
on
the
day of our king; so
he joins
hands
with those
who
mock
him
.
For they have
made
ready
their heart like an oven ,
whiles
they lie in wait :
their
baker
sleepeth
all the
night; in the morning it burneth
as
a flaming fire.
For they prepare
their heart like an oven while
they lie in wait ;
all night their
anger
smolders
; in the morning it blazes
like
a flaming fire.
They
are
all hot as an oven, and have
devoured
their judges;
all their kings are
fallen:
there
is
none
among
them that
calleth
unto
me.
All of
them
are
hot as an oven, and they
devour
their rulers.
All their kings fall;
not
one
of
them calls
upon
Me.
Ephraim ,
he
hath
mixed
himself
among
the people
; Ephraim is a
cake not
turned
.
Ephraim mixes
with
the nations
; Ephraim is an
unturned
cake.
Strangers
have
devoured
his strength, and
he knoweth
it
not :
yea,
gray hairs
are
here
and
there
upon
him
, yet
he knoweth
not.
Foreigners
consume
his strength, but
he does
not notice.
Even
his
hair
is
streaked
with
gray, but
he does
not know
.
And
the
pride
of
Israel
testifieth
to
his
face:
and
they do not return to the LORD their God, nor
seek him for
all
this
.
Israel’s
arrogance
testifies
against
them,
yet
they do not return to the LORD their God ;
despite
all
this
, they
do
not
seek Him.
Ephraim also
is
like a silly dove without
heart:
they
call
to Egypt, they
go
to Assyria.
So
Ephraim has
become
like a silly ,
senseless
dove —
calling
out
to Egypt, then
turning
to Assyria.
When
they shall
go, I will spread my net upon
them; I will bring them down as
the
fowls
of the heaven;
I will chastise them ,
as
their
congregation
hath
heard
.
As
they go, I will spread My net over
them; I will bring them down like
birds
of the air.
I will chastise them when
I
hear
them
flocking
together
.
Woe unto
them !
for they have fled
from me :
destruction unto
them !
because
they have transgressed
against me :
though I have
redeemed
them, yet
they have
spoken
lies against me.
Woe to
them ,
for they have strayed
from Me !
Destruction to
them ,
for
they have rebelled
against Me !
Though I would
redeem
them, they speak
lies against Me.
And
they have
not cried
unto
me with
their heart,
when they howled
upon their beds :
they assemble
themselves for corn
and wine, and
they
rebel
against
me.
They do
not cry
out
to
Me from
their hearts
when they wail
upon their beds .
They slash
themselves for grain
and new
wine, but
turn
away
from
Me.
Though
I have
bound
and strengthened their arms, yet
do
they imagine
mischief
against me.
Although
I trained
and strengthened their arms, they plot
evil
against Me.
They return
, but not to the most High :
they are like a deceitful
bow :
their princes
shall
fall by the sword for the rage
of their tongue :
this shall
be their
derision
in the land of Egypt.
They turn
, but not to the Most High ;
they are like a faulty
bow .
Their leaders
will
fall by the sword for the cursing
of their tongue ;
for
this they
will
be ridiculed
in the land of Egypt.
