For all those [things] hath mine hand made, and all those [things] have been, saith the LORD: but to this [man] will I look, [even] to [him that is] poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
¶ When Ephraim spake trembling, he exalted himself in Israel; but when he offended in Baal, he died.
