Berean Standard Bible
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Do
not
rejoice, O Israel, with
exultation
like the nations
, for you
have
played
the
harlot
against
your
God ;
you
have
made
love
for
hire
on
every
threshing
floor
.
`
Rejoice not
, O Israel, be
not
joyful
like the peoples
, For thou
hast
gone
a-whoring
from
thy
God ,
Thou
hast
loved
a
gift
near
all
floors
of
corn
.
The
threshing
floor and winepress
will
not feed
them, and the
new wine will
fail them.
Floor and wine-press
do
not delight
them, And new wine doth
fail in
her,
They will
not remain
in the land of the
LORD;
Ephraim will
return
to Egypt and eat
unclean
food
in Assyria
.
They do
not abide
in the land of Jehovah,
And
turned
back
hath
Ephraim `
to '
Egypt ,
And in Asshur
an
unclean
thing
they
eat
.
They will
not
pour out wine offerings
to the
LORD
, and
their
sacrifices
will
not
please
Him, but
will
be
to
them
like
the
bread of mourners ;
all who
eat
will
be
defiled.
For their bread will
be
for themselves ;
it will
not enter
the house of the
LORD
.
They pour not
out wine to Jehovah
, Nor
are
they
sweet
to
Him, Their
sacrifices
`are'
as
bread of mourners to
them,
All eating
it
are
unclean:
For their bread `is'
for themselves ,
It doth
not come
into
the house of Jehovah
.
What will
you
do on
the appointed
day ,
on
the day of the
LORD’s
feast
?
What do ye
at
the day appointed?
And
at
the day of Jehovah's
festival
?
For even
if
they flee
destruction, Egypt will
gather
them and
Memphis
will
bury
them .
Their precious
silver will
be
taken
over
by
thistles
, and
thorns
will
overrun
their tents.
For ,
lo,
they have
gone
because
of
destruction, Egypt gathereth
them ,
Moph
burieth
them ,
The
desirable
things
of
their silver, Nettles
possess
them
--
a
thorn
`is'
in
their tents.
The days of punishment
have
come ;
the days of retribution
have
arrived—
let
Israel know it.
The
prophet
is
called
a fool, and
the inspired
man insane
, because of the greatness
of your
iniquity and hostility
.
Come
in
have
the days of inspection,
Come in
have
the days of recompence,
Israel doth
know !
a fool `is'
the
prophet
, Mad
`is'
the man of
the
Spirit
, Because of the abundance
of thine
iniquity ,
And great
`is'
the
hatred
.
The
prophet
is Ephraim’s
watchman,
along
with
my God, yet
the snare of the
fowler lies
on
all his paths.
Hostility
is in the house of his God !
Ephraim
is looking
`away'
from
My God, The prophet!
a
snare of a
fowler `is'
over
all his ways,
Hatred
`
is '
in the house of his God .
They have deeply
corrupted
themselves
as in the days of Gibeah ;
He will
remember their guilt;
He will
punish
their sins.
They have gone
deep
--
have
done
corruptly,
As `
in '
the days of Gibeah ,
He doth
remember their iniquity,
He doth
inspect
their sins.
I
found
Israel
like
grapes in the
wilderness .
I saw
your
fathers
as the firstfruits
of
the
fig tree in
its first
season.
But
they went
to Baal-peor, and consecrated
themselves
to Shame;
so
they
became
as
detestable
as
the
thing they
loved
.
As
grapes in a
wilderness I found
Israel,
As the first-fruit
in
a
fig -
tree ,
at
its beginning,
I
have
seen
your
fathers,
They --
they
have
gone
in
`
to '
Baal-Peor, And are
separated
to a
shameful
thing ,
And
are
become
abominable
like
their
love
.
Ephraim’s
glory
will
fly away like
a
bird
, with
no
birth, no
pregnancy
, and no
conception.
Ephraim
`is'
as
a
fowl,
Fly away doth
their
honour
, without
birth, And
without
womb
, and without
conception.
Even
if
they raise
their children
, I will
bereave
them of
each
one.
Yes
, woe
be
to them when I turn away
from them !
For
though
they nourish
their sons
, I have
made
them childless
--
without
man
, Surely
also,
wo
to them ,
when I turn aside
from them .
I have seen
Ephraim,
like
Tyre
, planted in a
meadow.
But
Ephraim will
bring out his children
for
slaughter
.
Ephraim!
when
I have looked
to
the
rock
, Is
planted in comeliness,
And
Ephraim `is'
to
bring out unto
a
slayer
his sons
.
Give them, O
LORD—
what will
You
give? Give them wombs
that
miscarry
and breasts
that
dry up!
Give to
them, Jehovah
--
what dost
Thou
give? Give to
them miscarrying
womb,
and dry breasts.
All their evil appears
at
Gilgal, for
there I hated them .
I
will
drive
them
from
My
house
for
the wickedness
of their deeds.
I will
no
longer
love them ;
all their leaders
are rebellious
.
All their evil `is'
in
Gilgal, Surely
there I have
hated them ,
Because
of
the evil
of their doings,
Out
of
My
house
I do
drive
them,
I
add
not
to
love them ,
all their heads
`
are '
apostates
.
Ephraim is
struck
down;
their root is
withered;
they
cannot
bear
fruit .
Even
if
they bear
children
, I will
slay
the darlings
of their wombs
.
Ephraim hath
been
smitten,
Their root hath
dried
up,
fruit they yield
not
, Yea,
though
they
bring
forth,
I have
put
to
death
the desired
of their womb
.
My
God
will
reject them because they have not obeyed
Him ;
and they shall
be
wanderers among the
nations .
Reject them doth
my
God,
Because they have not hearkened
to
Him ,
And they are
wanderers among nations !
