1. Israel, don't be joyful. Don't be glad as the other nations are. You haven't been faithful to your God. You love to get paid for being a prostitute. Your pay is the grain at every threshing floor.
2. But soon there won't be any grain or wine to feed you. There won't even be any fresh wine.
3. You won't remain in the Lord's land. Ephraim, you will return to Egypt. You will eat "unclean" food in Assyria.
4. You won't pour out wine offerings to the Lord. Your sacrifices won't please him. They'll be like the bread people eat when someone dies. Everyone who eats those sacrifices will be "unclean." They themselves will have to eat that kind of food. They can't bring it into the Lord's temple.
