28 Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim,
    whose glorious beauty is a fading flower
which is at the head of the fertile valley
    of those who are overcome with wine!

⁴ and the fading flower of its glorious beauty,
    which is at the head of the fertile valley,
shall be like a first-ripe fig before the summer,
    which when one sees, while it is yet in his hand,
    he eats it up.
