10 I will come to punish them. Armies will come together against them and punish the Israelites for both of their sins.[a]

11 “Ephraim is like a trained young cow that loves to walk on grain on the threshing floor. I will put a good yoke on her neck. I will put the ropes on Ephraim. Then Judah will begin plowing. Jacob will break the ground himself.”
