¹¹ Though ^(A)Gilead has idols—
Surely they are ^[a]vanity—
Though they sacrifice bulls in ^(B)Gilgal,
Indeed their altars shall be heaps in the furrows of the field.

¹¹ “Because Ephraim has made many altars for sin,
They have become for him altars for sinning.

¹⁵ “Though you, Israel, play the harlot,
Let not Judah offend.
^(A)Do not come up to Gilgal,
Nor go up to ^(B)Beth^[a] Aven,
^(C)Nor swear an oath, saying, ‘As the Lord lives’—

¹⁵ “All their wickedness is in ^(A)Gilgal,
For there I hated them.
Because of the evil of their deeds
I will drive them from My house;
I will love them no more.
^(B)All their princes are rebellious.

⁸ “Those who regard ^(A)worthless idols
Forsake their own ^[a]Mercy.

⁴ “Come^(A) to Bethel and transgress,
At ^(B)Gilgal multiply transgression;
^(C)Bring your sacrifices every morning,
^(D)Your tithes every three ^[a]days.
