1 Rejoice not, O Israel!Exult not like the peoples; for you have played the whore, forsaking your God. You have loved a prostitute’s wageson all threshing floors.
2 Threshing floor and wine vat shall not feed them,and the new wine shall fail them.
3 They shall not remain in the land of the Lord,but Ephraim shall return to Egypt,and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.
4 They shall not pour drink offerings of wine to the Lord, and their sacrifices shall not please him.It shall be like mourners’ bread to them;all who eat of it shall be defiled;for their bread shall be for their hunger only; it shall not come to the house of the Lord.
