Now the men ^H376 of Ephraim ^H669 were summoned ^H6817, and they crossed ^H5674 [fn]to Zaphon ^H6829; and they said ^H559 to Jephthah ^H3316, “Why ^H4069 did you cross ^H5674 over ^H5674 to fight ^H3898 against the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983 without ^H3808 calling ^H7121 us to go ^H1980 with you? We will burn ^H8313 H784 your house ^H1004 down ^H8313 on you!”

Now there was a man ^H376 of the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669 whose name ^H8034 was Micah ^H4321.

Now it came ^H1961 about ^H1961 in those ^H1992 days ^H3117, when there ^H369 was ^H369 no ^H369 king ^H4428 in Israel ^H3478, that there was a certain ^H376 Levite ^H3881 [fn]staying ^H1481 in the remote ^H3411 part ^H3411 of the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669, who took ^H3947 a concubine ^H6370 for himself from Bethlehem ^H1035 in Judah ^H3063.

Then behold ^H2009, an old ^H2205 man ^H376 was coming ^H935 out of the field ^H7704 from his work ^H4639 at evening ^H6153. Now the man ^H376 was from the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669, and he was [fn]staying ^H1481 in Gibeah ^H1390, but the men ^H376 of the place ^H4725 were Benjaminites ^H1145.

Now there ^H8033 was a man ^H376 from Ramathaim-zophim ^H7436 from the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669, and his name ^H8034 was Elkanah ^H511 the son ^H1121 of Jeroham ^H3395, the son ^H1121 of Elihu ^H453, the son ^H1121 of Tohu ^H8459, the son ^H1121 of Zuph ^H6689, an Ephraimite ^H673.

Now it came ^H1961 about ^H1961 after two full ^H3117 years ^H8141 that Absalom ^H53 had ^H1961 sheepshearers ^H1494 in Baal-hazor ^H1178, which ^H834 is near ^H5973 Ephraim ^H669, and Absalom ^H53 invited ^H7121 all ^H3605 the king’s ^H4428 sons ^H1121 to celebrate.

Then the people ^H5971 went ^H3318 out ^H3318 to the field ^H7704 against ^H7122 Israel ^H3478, and the battle ^H4421 took ^H1961 place ^H1961 in the forest ^H3293 of Ephraim ^H669.

Then Jeroboam ^H3379 built ^H1129 Shechem ^H7927 in the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669, and lived ^H3427 [fn]there. And he went ^H3318 out ^H3318 from there ^H8033 and built ^H1129 Penuel ^H6439.

Now some ^H4480 of the families ^H4940 of the sons ^H1121 of Kohath ^H6955 had ^H1961 cities ^H5892 of their territory ^H1366 from the tribe ^H4294 of Ephraim ^H669.

The sons ^H1121 of Ephraim ^H669 were Shuthelah ^H7803 and [fn]Bered ^H1260 his son ^H1121, Tahath ^H8480 his son ^H1121, Eleadah ^H497 his son ^H1121, Tahath ^H8480 his son ^H1121,

Then Abijah ^H29 stood ^H6965 on Mount ^H2022 Zemaraim ^H6787, which ^H834 is in the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669, and said ^H559, “Listen ^H8085 to me, Jeroboam ^H3379 and all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478:

Now when Asa ^H609 heard ^H8085 these ^H428 words ^H1697 and the [fn]prophecy ^H5016 which Azariah ^H5838 the son of Oded ^H5752 the prophet ^H5030 spoke, he took ^H2388 courage ^H2388 and removed ^H5674 the abominable ^H8251 idols ^H8251 from all ^H3605 the land ^H776 of Judah ^H3063 and Benjamin ^H1144, and from the cities ^H5892 which ^H834 he had captured ^H3920 in the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669. He then restored ^H2318 the altar ^H4196 of the LORD ^H3068 which ^H834 was in front ^H6440 of the porch ^H197 of the LORD ^H3068.

So Jehoshaphat ^H3092 lived ^H3427 in Jerusalem ^H3389 and went ^H3318 out ^H3318 again ^H7725 among the people ^H5971 from Beersheba ^H884 to the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669, and brought ^H7725 them back ^H7725 to the LORD ^H3068, the God ^H430 of their fathers ^H1.

Now Hezekiah ^H2396 sent ^H7971 word to all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478 and Judah ^H3063 and also ^H1571 wrote ^H3789 letters ^H107 to Ephraim ^H669 and Manasseh ^H4519, that they should come ^H935 to the house ^H1004 of the LORD ^H3068 in Jerusalem ^H3389 to [fn]celebrate ^H6213 the Passover ^H6453 to the LORD ^H3068 God ^H430 of Israel ^H3478.

So the [fn]couriers ^H7323 passed ^H5674 from city ^H5892 to city ^H5892 through the country ^H776 of Ephraim ^H669 and Manasseh ^H4519, and as far ^H5704 as Zebulun ^H2074, but they laughed ^H7832 at them with ^H7832 scorn ^H7832 and mocked ^H3932 them.

Now when all ^H3605 this ^H2088 was finished ^H3615, all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478 who were ^H4672 present ^H4672 went ^H3318 out ^H3318 to the cities ^H5892 of Judah ^H3063, broke ^H7665 the memorial ^H4676 stones ^H4676 in ^H7665 pieces ^H7665, cut ^H1438 down ^H1438 the [fn]Asherim ^H842 and pulled ^H5422 down ^H5422 the high ^H1116 places ^H1116 and the altars ^H4196 throughout ^H4480 H3605 Judah ^H3063 and Benjamin ^H1144, as well as in Ephraim ^H669 and Manasseh ^H4519, until ^H5704 [fn]they had destroyed ^H3615 them all ^H3615. Then all ^H3605 the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 returned ^H7725 to their cities ^H5892, each ^H376 to his possession ^H272.
