- 以法蓮是馴良的母牛犢、喜愛踹榖、我卻將軛加在牠肥美的頸項上、我要使以法蓮拉套、〔或作被騎〕猶大必耕田、雅各必耙地。
- 你們要為自己栽種公義、就能收割慈愛、現今正是尋求耶和華的時候、你們要開墾荒地、等他臨到、使公義如雨降在你們身上。
- 你們耕種的是奸惡、收割的是罪孽、喫的是謊話的果子.因你倚靠自己的行為、仰賴勇士眾多、
- 所以在這民中必有鬨嚷之聲、你一切的保障必被拆毀、就如沙勒幔在爭戰的日子拆毀伯亞比勒、將其中的母子、一同摔死。
- 因他們的大惡、伯特利必使你們遭遇如此.到了黎明、以色列的王必全然滅絕。

- Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh, But I will come over her fair neck with a yoke; I will harness Ephraim, Judah will plow, Jacob will harrow for himself.
- Sow with a view to righteousness, Reap in accordance with kindness; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD Until He comes to rain righteousness on you.
- You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped injustice, You have eaten the fruit of lies Because you have trusted in your way, in your numerous warriors,
- Therefore a tumult will arise among your people, And all your fortresses will be destroyed, As Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel on the day of battle, When mothers were dashed in pieces with their children.
- Thus it will be done to you at Bethel because of your great wickedness. At dawn the king of Israel will be completely cut off.
