# General Information:
Yahweh is speaking in verse 16. Hosea begins speaking in verse 17.
# Ephraim is diseased, and their root is dried up; they bear no fruit
Yahweh speaks of the people of Israel as if they were a diseased tree that does not produce fruit and is ready to be cut down. This is a statement that the people have become weak, and that soon their enemies will come and defeat them. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
