שָׁמ֣וֹעַ שָׁמַ֗עְתִּי אֶפְרַ֙יִם֙ מִתְנוֹדֵ֔ד יִסַּרְתַּ֙נִי֙ וָֽאִוָּסֵ֔ר כְּעֵ֖גֶל לֹ֣א לֻמָּ֑ד הֲשִׁיבֵ֣נִי וְאָשׁ֔וּבָה כִּ֥י אַתָּ֖ה יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהָֽי׃
我確實聽見以法蓮哀嘆自己說：«你懲治了我，我就受了懲治，像一頭未經馴服的牛犢；求你使我回轉，我就必回轉，因為你是永恆者我的上帝。»
Targum Jonathan
I hear and reveal before Me the house of Israel, their words and their groaning because of their exile, They say "Suffering has befallen us, but we cannot learn, like a calf who doesn't learn how to plough. Help us return to serve you, for you are the Lord our God.
