11 Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning,
    they became for him altars for sinning.
12 I wrote for him the many things of my law;
    but they were regarded as a strange thing.
13 As for the sacrifices of my offerings,
    they sacrifice meat and eat it;
    But Yahweh doesn’t accept them.
Now he will remember their iniquity,
    and punish their sins.
    They will return to Egypt.
14 For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces;
    and Judah has multiplied fortified cities;
    but I will send a fire on his cities,
    and it will devour its fortresses.”

11 Since Ephraim has (A)multiplied altars for sin,
They have become altars of sinning for him.
12 Though (B)I wrote for him ten thousand precepts of My (C)Law,
They are regarded as a strange thing.
13 As for My (D)sacrificial gifts,
They (E)sacrifice the flesh and eat it,
But the Lord has taken no delight in them.
Now He will (F)remember their guilt,
And (G)punish them for their sins;
They will return to (H)Egypt.
14 For Israel has (I)forgotten his Maker and (J)built palaces;
And Judah has multiplied fortified cities,
But I will send a (K)fire on its cities, and it will consume its palatial buildings.
