1. Hear this, O priests! Give heed, O house of Israel! Listen, O house of the king! For the judgment applies to you, For you have been a snare at Mizpah And a net spread out on Tabor.
2. The revolters have gone deep in depravity, But I will chastise all of them.
3. I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me; For now, O Ephraim, you have played the harlot, Israel has defiled itself.
4. Their deeds will not allow them To return to their God. For a spirit of harlotry is within them, And they do not know the Lord.
5. Moreover, the pride of Israel testifies against him, And Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity; Judah also has stumbled with them.
6. They will go with their flocks and herds To seek the Lord, but they will not find Him; He has withdrawn from them.
