CHAP. XII.
1 A reproose of Ephraim, Iudah, and Iacob. 3 By former fauours he exhorteth to repentance. 7 Ephraims sinnes prouoke God.
2The Lord hath also a controuersie with Iudah, and will punish Iacob according to his wayes, according to his doings will he recompense him.2
3¶ Hee tooke his brother by the heele in the wombe, and by his strength he had power with God.3
4Yea, he had power ouer the Angel and preuailed: hee wept and made supplication vnto him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spake with vs.4
5Euen the Lord God of hosts, the Lord is his memoriall.5
6Therefore turne thou to thy God: keepe mercie and iudgement, and wait on thy God continually.
7¶ He is a merchant, the balances of deceit are in his hand: hee loueth to oppresse.7
8And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I haue found mee out substance: in all my labours they shall finde none iniquitie in mee, that were sinne.8
10I haue also spoken by the prophets, and I haue multiplied visions, and vsed similitudes, by the ministerie of the prophets.10
11Is there iniquitie in Gilead? surely they are vanitie, they sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal, yea their altars are as heapes in the furrowes of the fields.11

13And by a Prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a Prophet was he preserued.13
