Hosea 11:12-12:2
Lexham English Bible
Israel’s History
12 [a] Ephraim has surrounded me with lies,[b]
and the house of Israel with deceit;
and Judah is still wandering with God
and is faithful to the Holy One.
12 Ephraim herds the wind[c]
and is pursuing the east wind all day long;
he multiplies deception and violence
and he[d] makes a treaty with Assyria,[e]
and oil is brought to Egypt.
2 Yahweh has a quarrel[f] with Judah
and will punish Jacob according to his ways
and repay him according to his deeds.

and the house of Israel with deceit.
Judah still strays from God,
and is unfaithful to the Holy One.
12 Ephraim feeds on wind,
and chases the east wind.

and will punish Jacob according to his ways;
according to his deeds he will repay him.
