Rh : not, O Israel, for joy, as other people:
 * For thou hast gone a whoring from thy God,
 * Thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.
 * The floor and the winepress shall not feed them,
 * And the new wine shall fail in her.
 * They shall not dwell in the Lord's land;
 * But Ephraim shall return to Egypt,
 * And they shall eat unclean things in Assyria.
 * They shall not offer wine offerings to the Lord,
 * Neither shall they be pleasing unto him:
 * Their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners;
 * All that eat thereof shall be polluted:
 * For their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the Lord.
 * What will ye do in the solemn day,
 * And in the day of the feast of the Lord?
 * For, lo, they are gone because of destruction:
 * Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them:
 * The pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them:
 * Thorns shall be in their tabernacles.
 * The days of visitation are come,
 * The days of recompence are come;
 * Israel shall know it:
 * The prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad,
