Yahweh Withdraws from Israel
Hear this, O priests!
Give heed, O house of Israel!
Give ear, O house of the king!
For the judgment is for you,
For you have been a asnare at Mizpah
And a net spread out on Tabor.
2 And the arevolters have bdug deep into slaughtering,
But I will chastise all of them.
3 I aknow 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 aspirit of harlotry is within them,
And they bdo not know Yahweh.
5 Moreover, the apride of Israel answers against him,
And Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity;
bJudah also has stumbled with them.
