1 When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling;
he was exalted in Israel.
But he incurred guilt through Baal and died.
2 Now they continue to sin
and make themselves a cast image,
idols skillfully made from their silver,
all of them the work of craftsmen.
People say about them,
“Let the men who sacrifice[fn] kiss the calves.”
3 Therefore, they will be like the morning mist,
like the early dew that vanishes,
like chaff blown from a threshing floor,
or like smoke from a window.
4 I have been the LORD your God
ever since[fn] the land of Egypt;
you know no God but me,
and no Savior exists besides me.
5 I knew[fn] you in the wilderness,
in the land of drought.
6 When they had pasture,
they became satisfied;
they were satisfied,
and their hearts became proud.
Therefore they forgot me.
7 So I will be like a lion to them;
I will lurk like a leopard on the path.
8 I will attack them
like a bear robbed of her cubs
and tear open the rib cage over their hearts.
I will devour them there like a lioness,
like a wild beast that would rip them open.
9 I will destroy you, Israel;
you have no help but me.[fn]
10 Where now is your king,[fn]
that he may save you in all your cities,
and the[fn] rulers[fn] you demanded, saying,
“Give me a king and leaders”?
11 I give you a king in my anger
and take away a king in my wrath.
12 Ephraim’s guilt is preserved;
his sin is stored up.
13 Labor pains come on him.
He is not a wise son;
when the time comes,
he will not be born.[fn]
14 I will ransom them from the power of Sheol.
I will redeem[fn] them from death.
Death, where are your barbs?
Sheol, where is your sting?
Compassion is hidden from my eyes.
15 Although he flourishes among his brothers,[fn]
an east wind will come,
a wind from the LORD rising up from the desert.
His water source will fail,
and his spring will run dry.
The wind[fn] will plunder the treasury
of every precious item.
16 Samaria will bear her guilt
because she has rebelled against her God.
They will fall by the sword;
their children will be dashed to pieces,
and their pregnant women ripped open.
