I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself 'thus', Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a calf unaccustomed 'to the yoke': turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art Jehovah my God.
For aftir þat thou conuertidist me, Y dide penaunce; and aftir þat thou schewidist to me, Y smoot myn hipe; Y am schent, and Y schamede, for Y suffride þe schenschipe of my yongþe.
