12 Efraim/Yisrael feeds on the wind
≈and pursues the east wind all day.
He multiplies lies and violence.
They make a covenant with Assyria
and olive oil is carried to Egypt.
2 Yahweh also has a dispute with Yehudah,
and will punish Yakov for what they’ve done.
He will repay them according to how they behaved.
3 In the womb he took his brother by the heel,
and in his manhood he struggled with God.[ref]
4 He struggled with the messenger and prevailed.
He wept and begged for his favour.
He found Yahweh at Beyt-El
and he spoke with us there.
5 Yahweh, the God of armies.
Yahweh is his famous name.
6 But you must return to your God.
Keep loyal commitment and justice,
and wait continually for your God.
7 A merchant has false scales in his hands.
≈He loves to oppress.
8 Efraim/Yisrael said, “Fantastic. I’ve become rich.
I’ve found wealth for myself.
In all my labours they won’t find disobedience in me,
which would be sin.”
9 “I’m Yahweh your God since I rescued you from Egypt.
I’ll make you live in shelters again,
as in the days of that particular festival.[ref]
10 I spoke to the prophets,
and gave them many visions.
By the hand of the prophets I gave parables.”
11 If there’s disobedience in Gilead,
surely they’re worthless.
In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls.
Their altars also will be like piles of stones beside the furrows in the fields.
12 Yakov fled to Syria (Heb. Aram).
Yisrael worked to earn a wife,
and for a wife, he kept sheep.[ref]
13 Yahweh used the prophet Mosheh to bring Yisrael out of Egypt,
and so Yisrael was preserved by a prophet.[ref]
14 Efraim has provoked bitter anger,
so his master will hold him to account for bloodshed
and will turn his insults back onto himself.
