The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up. His sin is laid up in store.
My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou fasten up my iniquity.
But according to thy hardness, and thy impenitent heart, thou store up wrath to thyself in the day of wrath, and revelation, and righteous judgment of God,
[Ye say], God lays up his iniquity for his sons. Let him recompense it to himself that he may know it.
For though thou wash thee with lye, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before me, says lord LORD.
