12The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up,

his sin is kept in store.

but he is an unwise son;

for now he does not present himself

at the mouth of the womb.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up;

his sin is kept in store.

The pangs of childbirth come for him,

but he is an unwise son,

for at the right time he does not present himself

at the opening of the womb.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

The guilt of Ephraim is stored up,

his sins are kept on record.

Pains as of a woman in childbirth come to him,

but he is a child without wisdom;

when the time arrives,

he doesn’t have the sense to come out of the womb.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Ephraim’s guilt is preserved;

his sin is stored up.

Labor pains come on him.

He is not a wise son;

when the time comes,

he will not be born.

NLTNew Living Translation

“Ephraim’s guilt has been collected,

and his sin has been stored up for punishment.

Pain has come to the people

like the pain of childbirth,

but they are like a child

who resists being born.

The moment of birth has arrived,

but they stay in the womb!

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

The sin of Ephraim is wrapped up;

his sin is concealed.

The labor pains of childbirth come for him;

he is an unwise son

because at the proper time, he does not present himself

at the mouth of the womb.

KJV 1900King James Version

The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is hid.

The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him:

He is an unwise son;

For he should not stay long in the place of the breaking forth of children.
