Hosea 12:1-3

Tree of Life Version

12 “Ephraim surrounded Me with lies^[a]
and the house of Israel with deceit.”
Though Judah roams restlessly with God,
yet he is faithful with holy things.^[b]
2 Ephraim is grazing on wind
and pursuing the east wind.
All day he multiplies lies and ruin:
    making^[c] a pact with Assyria,
    while carrying oil to Egypt.
³ Adonai also has a dispute with Judah:
He will punish Jacob for his ways,
    repaying him for his deeds.
