Chapter 12

1

Ephraim feedeth on wind, and followeth after the east wind: he daily increaseth lies and desolation; and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt.

2

YHVH hath also a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings will he recompense him.

3

He took his brother by the heel in the womb, and by his strength he had power with ELOHIYM:

4

Yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept, and made supplication unto him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spake with us;

5

Even YHVH ELOHIYM of hosts; YHVH is his memorial.

6

Therefore turn thou to thy ELOHIYM: keep mercy and judgment and wait on thy ELOHIYM continually.

7

He is a merchant, the balances of deceit are in his hand: he loveth to oppress.

8

And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I have found me out substance: in all my labours they shall find none iniquity in me that were sin.

9

And I that am YHVH thy ELOHIYM from the land of Egypt will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the solemn feast.

10

I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.

11

Is there iniquity in Gilead? surely they are vanity: they sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal; yea, their altars are as heaps in the furrows of the fields.

12

And Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.

13

And by a prophet YHVH brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he preserved.

14

Ephraim provoked him to anger most bitterly: therefore shall he leave his blood upon him, and his reproach shall his ADOWN return unto him.
