Woe to Ephraim and Jerusalem
1 Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim,
Whose glorious beauty is a fading flower
Which is at the head of the1 verdant valleys,
To those who are overcome with wine!
Whose glorious beauty is a fading flower
Which is at the head of the1 verdant valleys,
To those who are overcome with wine!
2 Behold, the Lord has a mighty and strong one,
aLike a tempest of hail and a destroying storm,
Like a flood of mighty waters overflowing,
Who will bring them down to the earth with His hand.
aLike a tempest of hail and a destroying storm,

Who will bring them down to the earth with His hand.
4 And the glorious beauty is a fading flower
Which is at the head of the1 verdant valley,
Like the first fruit before the summer,
Which an observer sees;
He eats it up while it is still in his hand.

5 In that day the Lord of hosts will be
For a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty
To the remnant of His people,
For a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty
To the remnant of His people,
