·
2 The rebels are deep in slaughter; but I will chastise them all.
·
3 I know all about Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me. For now, O Ephraim, you have turned to prostitution; Israel is defiled.
·
4 Their deeds do not permit them to return to their God, for a spirit of prostitution is within them, and they do not know the LORD.
·
5 Israel’s arrogance testifies against them; Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity; even Judah stumbles with them.
·
6 They go with their flocks and herds to seek the LORD, but they do not find Him; He has withdrawn Himself from them.
·
7 They have been unfaithful to the LORD; for they have borne illegitimate children. Now the New Moon will devour them along with their land.
·
8 Blow the ram’s horn in Gibeah, the trumpet in Ramah; raise the battle cry in Beth-aven: Lead on, O Benjamin!
·
9 Ephraim will be laid waste on the day of rebuke. Among the tribes of Israel I proclaim what is certain.
·
10 The princes of Judah are like those who move boundary stones; I will pour out My fury upon them like water.
·
11 Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment, for he is determined to follow worthless idols.

12 So I am like a moth to Ephraim, and like decay to the house of Judah.
·
13 When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah his wound, then Ephraim turned to Assyria and sent to the great king. But he cannot cure you or heal your wound.
·
14 For I am like a lion to Ephraim and like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear them to pieces and then go away. I will carry them off where no one can rescue them.
·
15 Then I will return to My place until they admit their guilt and seek My face; in their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.”
