They will not dwell in the land of the Lord;
    but Ephraim will return to Egypt,
    and they will eat unclean things in Assyria.
They will not offer wine offerings to the Lord,
    and their sacrifices will not please Him.
Their sacrifices will be like the bread of mourners;
    all who eat of it will be defiled.
For their bread will be only to satisfy their own hunger;
    it will not come into the house of the Lord.

What will you do on the appointed day,
    and on the day of the festival of the Lord?
