Hosea 5:1-7

1Hear this, O priests! Pay attention, O house of Israel! Give ear, O house of the king! For the judgment applies to you: For you were a snare at Mizpah and a net spread on Tabor.

2Rebels were deep in slaughter, so I am a chastisement for them all.

3I myself have known Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me. For now, Ephraim, you are a prostitute— Israel is defiled!

4They will not give up their evil deeds to return to their God. For a spirit of prostitution is in them, and Adonai they have not known.

5The Pride of Israel will answer to his face: Israel and Ephraim will stagger in their iniquity, Judah also will stumble with them.

6With their flocks and with their herds they will go to seek Adonai, but they will not find Him— He has withdrawn from them.

7They have betrayed Adonai, for they have begotten foreign children. Now the New Moon will devour them, with their portions.
