15. Because of all their evil in Gilgal,I hate them there.On account of their evil deeds,I will drive them out of my land.I will no longer love them;all their rulers are rebels.
16. Ephraim will be struck down – their root will be dried up;they will not yield any fruit.Even if they do bear children,I will kill their precious offspring.
17. My God will reject them,for they have not obeyed him;so they will be fugitives among the nations.
