Learn the Lesson of Gibeah

Israel, you have sinned ever since the days of Gibeah,
    where the evildoers took their stand.
    The war against the evildoers caught up with them at Gibeah, did it not?
10 When I see fit, I will discipline them.[a]
    Peoples will be gathered against them
        to bind them for their double guilt.[b]

11 Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh.
    I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck.[c]
    I will harness Ephraim.
    Judah will plow.
    Jacob will break up the ground.
