New King James Version
16 “As for you, son of man, (A)take a stick for yourself and write on it: ‘For Judah and for (B)the children of Israel, his companions.’ Then take another stick and write on it, ‘For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel, his companions.’ 17 Then (C)join them one to another for yourself into one stick, and they will become one in your hand.
18 “And when the children of your people speak to you, saying, (D)‘Will you not show us what you mean by these?’— 19 (E)say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Surely I will take (F)the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel, his companions; and I will join them with it, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they will be one in My hand.” ’

Hosea 5:5-12
New King James Version
5 The (A)pride of Israel testifies to his face;
Therefore Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity;
Judah also stumbles with them.
6 “With their flocks and herds
(B)They shall go to seek the Lord,
But they will not find Him;
He has withdrawn Himself from them.
7 They have (C)dealt treacherously with the Lord,
For they have begotten [a]pagan children.
Now a New Moon shall devour them and their heritage.
8 “Blow(D) the ram’s horn in Gibeah,
The trumpet in Ramah!
(E)Cry aloud at (F)Beth Aven,
‘Look behind you, O Benjamin!’
9 Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke;
Among the tribes of Israel I make known what is sure.
10 “The princes of Judah are like those who (G)remove a landmark;
I will pour out My wrath on them like water.
11 Ephraim is (H)oppressed and broken in judgment,
Because he willingly walked by (I)human precept.
12 Therefore I will be to Ephraim like a moth,
And to the house of Judah (J)like rottenness.
