When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, Ephraim went to Assyria and sent to King Jareb. He is not able to heal you, neither will he cure you of your wound.

Ephraim, you are like a simpleminded, senseless dove. You call to Egypt and run to Assyria for help.

Let everyone be on guard against his neighbor. Do not trust any brother because every brother deals craftily (cunningly), and every neighbor goes about as a slanderer.

Through deceit they refuse to know me, says Jehovah.

Too bad for me! For I am like the gathered summer fruit, as the grape gleanings of the vintage. There is no cluster to eat. I desire the first ripe fig. The godly (loyal) (holy) man has perished from the earth. There is none upright among men! They all lie in wait for blood. Every man hunts his own brother with a net. They diligently seek to do evil with their hands. The prince asks and the judge is ready for a bribe. The great man utters his own evil desire. They weave it together. read more.
The best of them is as a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge! Your watchmen's day has come. Your visitation has come. Now you will be perplexed. Do not put your faith in your neighbor. Do not trust a friend! Guard your lips from her who lies in your bosom (is your intimate companion). The son dishonors the father. The daughter rises up against her mother and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man's enemies are the men of his own house.


It is better to trust in Jehovah than to depend on people. It is better to trust in Jehovah than to depend on human leaders.
