When heal I Israel and it is revealed [the] iniquity of Ephraim and [the] evil deeds of Samaria for they do falsehood and a thief he comes it attacks a marauding band in the street.
2 And they do not say to their heart, [That] I have remembered all their evil, Now their doings have surrounded them, They have been before My face.
And not they say to heart their all evil their I remember now they have surrounded them deeds their before face my they are.
3 With their wickedness they make a king glad, And with their lies—princes.
By evil their they make glad [the] king and by lies their princes.
4 All of them [are] adulterers, Like a burning oven of a baker, He ceases from stirring up after kneading the dough, until its leavening.

6 For they have drawn near, Their heart [is] as an oven In their lying in wait—their baker sleeps all night, Morning! He is burning as a flaming fire.
For they have brought near like oven heart their in ambush their all the night [is] sleeping baker their morning it [is] burning like a fire of flame.

9 Strangers have devoured his power, And he has not known, Also old age has sprinkled [itself] on him, And he has not known.
They have consumed strangers strength his and he not he knows also gray hair it has sneaked in on him and he not he knows.
10 And the excellence of Israel has been humbled to his face, And they have not turned back to their God YHWH, Nor have they sought Him for all this.

12 When they go I spread over them My net, As the bird of the heavens I bring them down, I discipline them as their congregation has heard.
Just when they will go I will spread over them net my like [the] bird[s] of the heavens I will bring down them I will chasten them according to a report to assembly their.

Woe! to them for they have fled from me devastation [belongs] to them for they have transgressed against me and I I will redeem them and they they have spoken on me lies.
14 And have not cried to Me with their heart, but howl on their beds; They assemble themselves for grain and new wine, They turn aside against Me.
And not they have cried out to me with heart their if they wail on beds their on grain and new wine they assemble themselves they turn aside against me.
15 And I instructed—I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil!
And I I instructed [them] I strengthened arms their and against me they plot evil.
16 They turn back—not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Their princes fall by sword, From the insolence of their tongue, This [is] their derision in the land of Egypt!”
They turn - not height they have become like a bow of slackness they will fall by the sword leaders their from [the] indignation of tongue their this [will be] mockery their in [the] land of Egypt.
