5 In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with a wineskin; he stretched out his hand with the scorners.
6 For they have made ready their heart like an oven while they lie in wait; their baker sleeps all night; in the morning it burns as a flaming fire.
7 They are all hot as an oven and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen; there is no one among them that calls unto me.
8 Ephraim, he has mixed himself among the peoples; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he does not know it; yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he does not understand.
10 And the pride of Israel shall testify to his face, and they have not returned to the Lord their God, nor have they sought him with all this.
11 Ephraim also was like a deceived dove, without understanding; they shall call to Egypt, they shall go to Assyria.
