28:007:001 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. 28:007:002 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. 28:007:003 They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies. 28:007:004 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. 28:007:005 In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners. 28:007:006 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. 28:007:007 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. 28:007:008 Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned. 28:007:009 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not. 28:007:010 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. 28:007:011 Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria. 28:007:012 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. 28:007:013 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. 28:007:014 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. 28:007:015 Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me. 28:007:016 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. 28:008:001 Set the trumpet to thy mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the LORD, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law. 28:008:002 Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee.
