1. Do not rejoice, O Israel, do not celebrate like the peoples— for so you have gone whoring away from your God. You have loved a prostitute’s pay, on every grain-threshing-floor.
2. Threshing-floor and wine-press will not sustain them, and new wine will fail her.
3. They will not dwell in Adonai’s land. Instead Ephraim will return to Egypt, and eat unclean food in Assyria.
4. They will pour no wine-offerings to Adonai— they would not be pleasing to Him. Their sacrifices will be like the bread of mourners for them. All that eat it will be defiled, for their bread is for their appetite, not coming into the House of Adonai.
