17. For your songs and proverbs and parables, And for your interpretations, the countries marveled at you.
18. By the name of the Lord God, Which is called the God of Israel, You did gather gold as tin, And did multiply silver as lead.
19. You did bow your loins to women, And in your body you were brought into subjection.
20. You did blemish your honor, And profane your seed, To bring wrath upon your children; And I was grieved for your folly:
21. So that the sovereignty was divided, And out of Ephraim ruled a disobedient kingdom.
