| 7:1 | `When I give healing to Israel, Then revealed is the iniquity of Ephraim, And the wickedness of Samaria, For they have wrought falsehood, And a thief doth come in, Stript off hath a troop in the street, |
| 7:2 | And they do not say to their heart, `That' all their evil I have remembered, Now compassed them have their doings, Over-against My face they have been. |
| 7:3 | With their wickedness they make glad a king, And with their lies -- princes. |

| 7:12 | When they go I spread over them My net, As the fowl of the heavens I bring them down, I chastise them as their company hath heard. |
| 7:13 | Wo to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I -- I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against Me, |
| 7:14 | And have not cried unto Me with their heart, but howl on their beds, For corn and new wine they assemble themselves, They turn aside against Me. |
| 7:15 | And I instructed -- I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil! |
| 7:16 | They turn back -- not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Fall by sword do their princes, From the insolence of their tongue, This `is' their derision in the land of Egypt! |
