Hosea 11:12--12:2

Ephraim
<0669>

compasseth
<05437> (8804)

me about with lies
<03585>_,

and the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

with deceit
<04820>_:

but Judah
<03063>

yet ruleth
<07300> (8804)

with God
<0410>_,

and is faithful
<0539> (8737)

with the saints
<06918>_.

{saints: or, most holy}

Ephraim
<0669>

feedeth
<07462> (8802)

on wind
<07307>_,

and followeth
<07291> (8802)

after the east wind
<06921>_:

he daily
<03117>

increaseth
<07235> (8686)

lies
<03577>

and desolation
<07701>_;

and they do make
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>

with the Assyrians
<0804>_,

and oil
<08081>

is carried
<02986> (8714)

into Egypt
<04714>_.

The LORD
<03068>

hath also a controversy
<07379>

with Judah
<03063>_,

and will punish
<06485> (8800)

Jacob
<03290>

according to his ways
<01870>_;

according to his doings
<04611>

will he recompense
<07725> (8686)

him. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
