11 Ephraim is (B)oppressed and broken in judgment,
Because he willingly walked by (C)human precept.
12 Therefore I will be to Ephraim like a moth,
And to the house of Judah (D)like rottenness.

10 Judah’s leaders are like those
    who move boundary stones.(A)

    intent on pursuing idols.[a](C)
12 I am like a moth(D) to Ephraim,
    like rot(E) to the people of Judah.
