14 I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your brides when they commit adultery; for they themselves go apart with whores, and they sacrifice with the harlots: and the people that doth not understand shall be overthrown.
15 Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Beth-aven, nor swear, As the Lord liveth.
16 For Israel hath behaved himself stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer: now will the Lord feed them as a lamb in a large place.
17 Ephraim is joined to idols; let him alone.
18 Their drink is become sour: they commit whoredom continually; her rulers dearly love shame.
19 The wind hath wrapped her up in its wings; and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
