The original text is written in Hebrew language. This chapter is divided into 14 verses.

Verse 9
They have deeply corrupted themselves,
as in the days of Gibeah:
therefore he will remember their iniquity,
he will visit their sins.[7]
- "As in, the days of Gibeah": When Benjamin espoused the cause of "the children of Belial" who had worked such horrible brutishness in Gibeah toward the concubine of the Levite. This they maintained with such obstinacy, that, through God's judgment, the whole tribe perished, except six hundred men. Deeply they must have already corrupted themselves, who supported such guilt. Such corruption and such obstinacy was theirs still.[8] See {{bibleref2|Judges|19}}.[9]
Verse 11
As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird,
from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.[10]
- " As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird": The greatest glory, perhaps, of Ephraim was their fruitfulness - "double fruitfulness" being the very meaning of the name and the multiplication of their numbers; now that glory of populousness was to vanish speedily and entirely, like birds winging their way swiftly and out of sight. After the figure comes the fact, and it is expressed in anti-climactic form - no child-bearing, no pregnancy, no conception. The course of barrenness takes the place of the blessing of fruitfulness. Though they bring up their children, yet will I believe them, that there shall not be a man left. Even if their sons should grow up to manhood and attain maturity, yet they would be cut off by the sword and swept away by death, so that their progeny would perish. This accords with the threatened punishment of unfaithfulness recorded in {{bibleref2|Deuteronomy|32:25}}, "The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of grey hairs." The negative sense of rain, equivalent to "so that not," is common before verbs, also before nouns the min being put for the fuller מֵהְיות.[11]
- "from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception": that is, some of them, as soon as they were born; others while in the womb, being abortives; or, however, when they should, or as soon as they did, come from thence; and others, as soon as conceived, never come to any thing; or not conceived at all, as Kimchi interprets it, "the women being barren".[12]
