12 Now (A)Jacob fled to the [a]land of Aram,
And (B)Israel worked for a wife,
And for a wife he kept sheep.
13 But by a (C)prophet the Lord brought Israel up from Egypt,
And by a prophet he was protected.
14 (D)Ephraim has provoked God to bitter anger;
So his Lord will leave his (E)guilt for bloodshed on him
And bring his (F)disgrace back to him.
