| 1 | Effraym fedith wynd, and sueth heete. Al dai he multiplieth leesyng, and distriyng; and he made boond of pees with Assiriens, and bar oile in to Egipt. |
| 2 | Therfor the doom of the Lord is with Juda, and visityng is on Jacob; bi the weies of hym, and bi the fyndyngis of hym he schal yelde to hym. |
| 3 | In the wombe he supplauntide his brother, and in his strengthe he was dressid with the aungel. |
| 4 | And he was strong to the aungel, and was coumfortid; he wepte, and preiede hym; in Bethel he foond hym, and there he spak with vs. |
| 5 | And the Lord God of oostis, the Lord, is the memorial of hym. |
| 6 | And thou schalt turne to thi God. Kepe thou merci and doom, and hope thou euere in thi God. |
| 7 | Chanaan louyde fals caleng, a gileful balaunce in his hond. |
| 8 | And Effraym seide, Netheles Y am maad riche, Y haue founde an idol to me; alle my trauelis schulen not fynde to me the wickidnesse, whiche Y synnede. |
| 9 | And Y am thi Lord God fro the lond of Egipt; yit Y schal make thee to sitte in tabernaclis, as in the daies of feeste. |
| 10 | And Y spak bi profetis, and Y multiplied profesie, and Y was licned in the hond of profetis. |
| 11 | If Galaad worschipith an idol, therfor thei erren in veyn offryng to oxis in Galgal; for whi and the auteris of hem schulen be as heepis on the forewis of the feeld. |
| 12 | Effraym cumpasside me in denying, the hous of Israel in gile. But Judas a witnesse yede doun with God, and with feithful seyntis. |
| 13 | But bi a profete the Lord ledde Israel out of Egipt, and bi a profete he was kept. |
| 14 | Effraym terride me to wrathfulnesse in hise bitternessis, and the blood of hym schal come on hym; and his Lord schal restore to hym the schenschipe of him. |
