KJV ORIGINAL
When Ephraim spake trembling, he exalted himself in Israel; but when he offended in Baal, he died.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
There was a time when Ephraim's voice actually mattered in Israel — people listened with respect when he spoke up. But then he got caught up worshipping Baal, and that was it for him. Game over.
