¹¹ Ephraim is a trained heifer
    that loves to thresh;
so I will put a yoke^(A)
    on her fair neck.
I will drive Ephraim,
    Judah must plow,
    and Jacob must break up the ground.

¹² Sow^(A) righteousness^(B) for yourselves,
    reap the fruit of unfailing love,
and break up your unplowed ground;^(C)
    for it is time to seek^(D) the Lord,
until he comes
    and showers his righteousness^(E) on you.
