V.1 When I would have healed 7495-2 Israel, 3478 then the iniquity 5771 of Ephraim 669 was discovered, 1540-8 and the wickedness 7451 of Samaria: 8111 for they commit 6466-1 falsehood; 8267 and the thief 1590 cometh in, 935-4 [and] the troop 1416 of robbers spoileth 6584-1 without. 2351

7:2 And they consider 559-4 not in their hearts 3824 [that] I remember 2142-1 all their wickedness: 7451 now their own doings 4611 have beset them about; 5437-1 they are before my face. 6440

7:3 They make the king 4428 glad 8055-17 with their wickedness, 7451 and the princes 8269 with their lies. 3585

7:4 They [are] all adulterers, 5003-18 as an oven 8574 heated 1197-6 by the baker, 644-6 [who] ceaseth 7673-4 from raising 5782-2 after he hath kneaded 3888-2 the dough, 1217 until it be leavened. 2556-2

7:5 In the day 3117 of our king 4428 the princes 8269 have made [him] sick 2470-52 with bottles 2534 of wine; 3196 he stretched out 4900-1 his hand 3027 with scorners. 3945-6

7:6 For they have made ready 7126-14 their heart 3820 like an oven, 8574 whiles they lie in wait: 693-2 their baker 644-6 sleepeth 3463 all the night; 3915 in the morning 1242 it burneth 1197-6 as a flaming 3852 fire. 784

7:7 They are all hot 2552-11 as an oven, 8574 and have devoured 398-1 their judges; 8199-6 all their kings 4428 are fallen: 5307-1 [there is] none among them that calleth 7121-6 unto me.

7:8 Ephraim, 669 he hath mixed 1101-108 himself among the people; 5971 Ephraim 669 is a cake 5692 not turned. 2015-7

7:9 Strangers 2114-5 have devoured 398-1 his strength, 3581 and he knoweth 3045-1 [it] not: yea, gray hairs 7872 are here and there 2236-1 upon him, yet he knoweth 3045-1 not.

7:10 And the pride 1347 of Israel 3478 testifieth 6030-1 to his face: 6440 and they do not return 7725-1 to the LORD 3068 their God, 430 nor seek 1245-14 him for all this.

7:11 Ephraim 669 also is like a silly 6601-6 dove 3123 without heart: 3820 they call 7121-1 to Egypt, 4714 they go 1980-1 to Assyria. 804

7:12 When they shall go, 3212-4 I will spread 6566-4 my net 7568 upon them; I will bring them down 3381-55 as the fowls 5775 of the heaven; 8064 I will chastise 3256-55 them, as their congregation 5712 hath heard. 8088

7:13 Woe 188 unto them! for they have fled 5074-1 from me: destruction 7701 unto them! because they have transgressed 6586-1 against me: though I have redeemed 6299-4 them, yet they have spoken 1696-14 lies 3577 against me.

7:14 And they have not cried 2199-1 unto me with their heart, 3820 when they howled 3213-55 upon their beds: 4904 they assemble 1481-113 themselves for corn 1715 and wine, 8492 [and] they rebel 5493-4 against me.

7:15 Though I have bound 3256-14 [and] strengthened 2388-14 their arms, 2220 yet do they imagine 2803-17 mischief 7451 against me.
