Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh; so I will put a yoke on her fair neck. I will drive Ephraim, Judah must plow, and Jacob must break up the ground.

Ephraim was like a well- trained young cow. It loved to thresh grain. So I will put a yoke on its pretty neck. I will make Ephraim do hard work. Judah also must plow. So all the people of Jacob must break up the ground.

以色列倔強，猶如倔強的母牛；現在耶和華能牧放他們，如在寬闊之地牧放羔羊嗎？

搶奪我產業的啊，你們因歡喜快樂，像踹穀嬉戲的母牛犢，又像發嘶聲的壯馬。

「牛在踹穀的時候，不可籠住牠的嘴。」

因為這樣的人不服侍我們的主基督，只服侍自己的肚腹，用花言巧語誘惑老實人的心。

耶和華－他的神將他交在亞蘭王手裏。亞蘭王打敗他，從他擄走了許多人，帶到大馬士革去。神又將他交在以色列王手裏，以色列王向他大行殺戮。利瑪利的兒子比加一日之內在猶大殺了十二萬人，都是勇士，因為他們離棄了耶和華－他們列祖的神。有一個叫細基利的以法蓮勇士，殺了瑪西雅王子、押斯利甘宮廷總管和以利加拿宰相。以色列人擄了他們的弟兄，連婦人帶兒女共二十萬，又掠取了許多財物，把這些掠物帶到撒瑪利亞去。

他們的母親行了淫亂，懷他們的做了可羞恥的事；因為她說：「我要跟隨我所愛的，我的餅、水、羊毛、麻、油、酒，都是他們給的。」

那為撒種而耕地的會不停地耕地，鬆土，耙地嗎？

耶和華又對我說：「你去愛那情人所愛卻犯姦淫的婦人，正如耶和華愛那偏向別神、喜愛葡萄餅的以色列人。」

以色列啊，不要歡喜，像萬民一樣快樂；因為你行淫離棄你的神，喜愛各禾場上賣淫所得的賞金。

我用慈繩愛索牽引他們；我待他們如人鬆開牛兩腮旁邊的軛，彎下身來餵養他們。
