Hosea 5:1-5
Legacy Standard Bible
Yahweh Withdraws from Israel
5 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 (A)snare at Mizpah
And a net spread out on Tabor.
2 And the (B)revolters have (C)dug deep into slaughtering,
But I will chastise all of them.
3 I (D)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 (E)spirit of harlotry is within them,
And they (F)do not know Yahweh.
5 Moreover, the (G)pride of Israel answers against him,
And Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity;
(H)Judah also has stumbled with them.
