6 Because they are kindled like an oven, their heart burns within them; all night their anger smolders, in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
7 All of them are hot as an oven, and they devour their rulers. All their kings have fallen; there is none who calls to me amongst them.
8 Ephraim mixes himself with the nations; Ephraim is a bread cake not turned over.
9 Foreigners devour his strength, and he does not know it; mold is also sprinkled upon him, and he does not know it.
10 The pride of Israel testifies against him— they do not return to Yahweh their God; they do not seek him for all of this.
11 Ephraim was like a dove, silly, without sense; they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
12 Just as they go, I will cast my net over them; I will bring them down like the birds of the heavens; I will discipline them according to a report to their assembly.
