15 Though you, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not unto Gilgal, neither go up to Bethaven, nor swear, As the LORD lives.
16 For Israel slides back like a stubborn heifer: now the LORD will feed them as a lamb in an open pasture.
17 Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
18 Their drink is sour: they have committed harlotry continually: her rulers love shame more than glory.
19 The wind has bound her up in its wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
