King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. When I would have healed[H7495] Israel,[H3478] then the iniquity[H5771] of Ephraim[H669] was discovered,[H1540] and the wickedness[H7451] of Samaria:[H8111] for[H3588] they commit[H6466] falsehood;[H8267] and the thief[H1590] cometh in,[H935] and the troop of robbers[H1416] spoileth[H6584] without.[H2351]

2. And they consider[H559] not[H1077] in their hearts[H3824] that I remember[H2142] all[H3605] their wickedness:[H7451] now[H6258] their own doings[H4611] have beset them about;[H5437] they are[H1961] before[H5048] my face.[H6440]

3. They make the king glad[H8055] [H4428] with their wickedness,[H7451] and the princes[H8269] with their lies.[H3585]

4. They are all[H3605] adulterers,[H5003] as[H3644] an oven[H8574] heated[H1197] by[H4480] the baker,[H644] who ceaseth[H7673] from raising[H4480] [H5782] after he hath kneaded[H4480] [H3888] the dough,[H1217] until[H5704] it be leavened.[H2556]

5. In the day[H3117] of our king[H4428] the princes[H8269] have made him sick[H2470] with bottles[H2534] of wine;[H4480] [H3196] he stretched out[H4900] his hand[H3027] with[H854] scorners.[H3945]

6. For[H3588] they have made ready[H7126] their heart[H3820] like an oven,[H8574] while they lie in wait:[H693] their baker[H644] sleepeth[H3463] all[H3605] the night;[H3915] in the morning[H1242] it[H1931] burneth[H1197] as a flaming[H3852] fire.[H784]

7. They are all hot[H2552] [H3605] as an oven,[H8574] and have devoured[H398] [H853] their judges;[H8199] all[H3605] their kings[H4428] are fallen:[H5307] there is none[H369] among them that calleth[H7121] unto[H413] me.

8. Ephraim,[H669] he[H1931] hath mixed himself[H1101] among the people;[H5971] Ephraim[H669] is[H1961] a cake[H5692] not[H1097] turned.[H2015]

9. Strangers[H2114] have devoured[H398] his strength,[H3581] and he[H1931] knoweth[H3045] it not:[H3808] yea,[H1571] gray hairs[H7872] are here and there[H2236] upon him, yet he[H1931] knoweth[H3045] not.[H3808]

10. And the pride[H1347] of Israel[H3478] testifieth[H6030] to his face:[H6440] and they do not[H3808] return[H7725] to[H413] the LORD[H3068] their God,[H430] nor[H3808] seek[H1245] him for all[H3605] this.[H2063]

11. Ephraim[H669] also is[H1961] like a silly[H6601] dove[H3123] without[H369] heart:[H3820] they call[H7121] to Egypt,[H4714] they go[H1980] to Assyria.[H804]

12. When[H834] they shall go,[H1980] I will spread[H6566] my net[H7568] upon[H5921] them; I will bring them down[H3381] as the fowls[H5775] of the heaven;[H8064] I will chastise[H3256] them, as their congregation[H5712] hath heard.[H8088]

13. Woe[H188] unto them! for[H3588] they have fled[H5074] from[H4480] me: destruction[H7701] unto them! because[H3588] they have transgressed[H6586] against me: though I[H595] have redeemed[H6299] them, yet they[H1992] have spoken[H1696] lies[H3577] against[H5921] me.

14. And they have not[H3808] cried[H2199] unto[H413] me with their heart,[H3820] when[H3588] they howled[H3213] upon[H5921] their beds:[H4904] they assemble themselves[H1481] for[H5921] corn[H1715] and wine,[H8492] and they rebel[H5493] against me.

15. Though I[H589] have bound[H3256] and strengthened[H2388] their arms,[H2220] yet do they imagine[H2803] mischief[H7451] against[H413] me.

16. They return,[H7725] but not[H3808] to the most High:[H5920] they are[H1961] like a deceitful[H7423] bow:[H7198] their princes[H8269] shall fall[H5307] by the sword[H2719] for the rage[H4480] [H2195] of their tongue:[H3956] this[H2097] shall be their derision[H3933] in the land[H776] of Egypt.[H4714]
