1. “Hear this, O priests!Take heed, O house of Israel!Give ear, O house of the king!For yours is the judgment,Because you have been a snare to MizpahAnd a net spread on Tabor.
2. The revolters are deeply involved in slaughter,Though I rebuke them all.
3. I know Ephraim,And Israel is not hidden from Me;For now, O Ephraim, you commit harlotry;Israel is defiled.
4. “They do not direct their deedsToward turning to their God,For the spirit of harlotry is in their midst,And they do not know the Lord.
