15 Even though you, O Israel, are playing the whore, do not let Judah become guilty; do not enter Gilgal, or go up to Beth-aven; and do not swear, “As Yahweh lives!”
16 Indeed, like a stubborn heifer, Israel is stubborn; Now Yahweh will feed them, like a lamb in broad pasture.
17 Ephraim is joined to idols; let him alone.
18 When their drinking has ended, they surely indulge in sexual orgies. They love lewdness more than their glory.
19 A wind has wrapped them in its wings, and they will be ashamed because of their altars.
