The LORD’s Anger Against Israel 1When Ephraim spoke, people trembled; he was exalted in Israel. But he became guilty of Baal worship and died.

2Now they sin more and more; they make idols for themselves from their silver, cleverly fashioned images, all of them the work of craftsmen. It is said of these people, “They offer human sacrifices! They kiss Or “Men who sacrifice / kiss calf-idols!”

3Therefore they will be like the morning mist, like the early dew that disappears, like chaff swirling from a threshing floor, like smoke escaping through a window.
