11 For Ephraim multiplied altars to sin, and sanctuaries have become an offense for him.
12 I will write to him my intricate laws, which have been treated like strangers.
13 They will offer victims, they will immolate flesh and will eat, and the Lord will not accept them. For now he will remember their iniquity, and he will repay their sins: they will be turned back to Egypt.
14 And Israel has forgotten his Maker and has built shrines. And Judah has increased its fortified cities. And I will send fire upon his cities, and it will devour its structures.
