17. Ephrayim [i.e., the Northern Kingdom, Israel] is joined to atzabim (idols); leave him alone.

18. When their drink is sour [i.e., when intoxicated], they have committed whoredom; her mogenim (shields, rulers) deeply love kalon (ignominy, shame).

19. The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and their zevakhot (sacrifices) shall bring them bushah (shame).
