- and there he spoke with him.[fn]
- 5 Yahweh is his renowned name!
- 6 keep love and justice,
- and wait continually for your God.
- 7 The trader, in his hand are scales of deceit;[fn]he loves to oppress.
- 8 I gained[fn] wealth for myself;
- in all my toil they have not found guilt in me
- that is sin.
- 9 am Yahweh your God since[fn] the land of Egypt;
- I will make you live in tents again,
- like the days of the appointed festival.
- 10 I myself multiplied revelations[fn]
- and through the hand of the prophets I will destroy.
- 11 in Gilead there is evil, surely they will come to nothing.
- In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls,
- also their altars will be like stone heaps
- on furrows of the field.
- 12 to the open field of Aram,[fn]and Israel served for a wife,
- and for a wife he watched over sheep.
- 13 Israel up from Egypt,
- and by a prophet
- he[fn] was watched over.
- 14 and his Lord will[fn]
- and pay back to him his insults.
