HOS 12:1  Ephraim feedeth on the wind, and followeth the burning heat: all the day long he multiplied lies and desolation: and he hath made a covenant with the Assyrians, and carried oil into Egypt.

HOS 12:2  Therefore there is a judgment of the Lord with Juda, and a visitation for Jacob: he will render to him according to his ways, and according to his devices.

HOS 12:3  In the womb he supplanted his brother: and by his strength he had success with an angel.
