3 He took his brother by the heel in the womb,And in his strength he struggled with God.
4 Yes, he struggled with the Angel and prevailed;He wept, and sought favor from Him.He found Him in Bethel,And there He spoke to us—
5 That is, the Lord God of hosts.The Lord is His memorable name.
6 So you, by the help of your God, return;Observe mercy and justice,And wait on your God continually.
7 “A cunning Canaanite!Deceitful scales are in his hand;He loves to oppress.
8 And Ephraim said,‘Surely I have become rich,I have found wealth for myself;In all my laborsThey shall find in me no iniquity that is sin.’
9 “But I am the Lord your God,Ever since the land of Egypt;I will again make you dwell in tents,As in the days of the appointed feast.
