Hosea 10:11-13

Easy-to-Read Version

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.”

¹² If you plant goodness, you will harvest faithful love. Plow your ground, and you will harvest with the Lord. He will come, and he will make goodness fall on you like rain.

¹³ But you planted evil, and you harvested trouble. You ate the fruit of your lies, because you had trusted in your power and your soldiers.
