They have dealt treacherously against the Lord,
For they have borne illegitimate (pagan) children.
Now the [a]New Moon will devour them along with their land [bringing judgment and captivity].

The trumpet in Ramah [the lofty hills on Benjamin’s northern border].

“Behind you and coming after you [is the enemy], O Benjamin [be on guard]!”

Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke;
Among the tribes of Israel I declare what is certain.
