¹¹ I spoke to the prophets,
    to whom I granted many visions
    and through whom I will speak in parables.
¹² Gilead is a hotbed of iniquity;
    the people there are worthless.
In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls;
    their altars are like piles of stones
    on a plowed field.
¹³ Jacob fled to the country of Aram;
    Israel did service to obtain a wife,
    paying for her by tending sheep.
