11 Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sin,
    they have become to him altars for sinning.
12 I have written for him the great things of My law,
    but they were regarded as a strange thing.
13 For the sacrifices of My offerings,

    but the Lord does not accept them.
Now He will remember their iniquity
    and punish their sins.
    They will return to Egypt.
