10When it is My desire, I will chastise them;
         And the peoples will be gathered against them
         When they are bound for their double guilt.

11Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh,
         But I will come over her fair neck with a yoke;
         I will harness Ephraim,
         Judah will plow, Jacob will harrow for himself.

12Sow with a view to righteousness,
         Reap in accordance with kindness;
         Break up your fallow ground,
         For it is time to seek the LORD
         Until He comes to rain righteousness on you.

13You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped injustice,
         You have eaten the fruit of lies.
         Because you have trusted in your way, in your numerous warriors,

14Therefore a tumult will arise among your people,
         And all your fortresses will be destroyed,
         As Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel on the day of battle,
         When mothers were dashed in pieces with their children.

15Thus it will be done to you at Bethel because of your great wickedness.
         At dawn the king of Israel will be completely cut off.
