Don’t rejoice, Israel, to jubilation like the nations;

    for you were unfaithful to your God.
    You love the wages of a prostitute at every grain threshing floor.
The threshing floor and the wine press won’t feed them,
    and the new wine will fail her.
They won’t dwell in Yahweh’s land;
    but Ephraim will return to Egypt,
    and they will eat unclean food in Assyria.

Do not rejoice, Israel;
    do not be jubilant(A) like the other nations.
For you have been unfaithful(B) to your God;

    at every threshing floor.
Threshing floors and winepresses will not feed the people;
    the new wine(D) will fail them.
They will not remain(E) in the Lord’s land;
    Ephraim will return to Egypt(F)
    and eat unclean food in Assyria.(G)
