12. And Jacob doth flee to the country of Aram, And Israel doth serve for a wife, Yea, for a wife he hath kept watch.
13. And by a prophet hath Jehovah brought up Israel out of Egypt, And by a prophet it hath been watched.
14. Ephraim hath provoked most bitterly, And his blood on himself he leaveth, And his reproach turn back to him doth his Lord!
