Hosea 11:12-12:2
Authorized (King James) Version
12 Ephraim compasseth me about with lies,
and the house of Israel with deceit:
but Judah yet ruleth with God,
and is faithful with the saints.
12 Ephraim feedeth on wind,
and followeth after the east wind:
he daily increaseth lies and desolation;
and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians,
and oil is carried into Egypt.
2 The Lord hath also a controversy with Judah,
and will punish Jacob according to his ways;
according to his doings will he recompense him.
Hosea 11:12-12:2

And the house of Israel with deceit;
But Judah still walks with God,
Even with the [a]Holy One who is faithful.
Ephraim’s Sins Rebuked by God
12 “Ephraim (A)feeds on the wind,
And pursues the east wind;
He daily increases lies and [b]desolation.
(B)Also they make a [c]covenant with the Assyrians,
And (C)oil is carried to Egypt.
2 “The(D) Lord also brings a [d]charge against Judah,
And will punish Jacob according to his ways;
According to his deeds He will recompense him.
