They will not remain(A) in the Lord’s land;
    Ephraim will return to Egypt(B)
    and eat unclean food in Assyria.(C)
They will not pour out wine offerings(D) to the Lord,
    nor will their sacrifices please(E) him.
Such sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners;(F)
    all who eat them will be unclean.(G)
This food will be for themselves;
    it will not come into the temple of the Lord.(H)

What will you do(I) on the day of your appointed festivals,(J)
    on the feast days of the Lord?

They shall not pour drink offerings of wine to the Lord,

    it shall not come to the house of the Lord.(B)

What will you do on the day of appointed festival
    and on the day of the festival of the Lord?(C)
