2  ^eThe Lord has an indictment against Judah

and will punish Jacob according to his ways;

he will repay him according to his deeds.

3  ^fIn the womb he took his brother by the heel,

and ^gin his manhood he strove with God.

7  A merchant, in whose hands are ^mfalse balances,

he loves to oppress.

8  Ephraim has said, “Ah, but ⁿI am rich;

I have found wealth for myself;

in all my labors they cannot find in me iniquity or sin.”
