28_HOS_05_01 Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment [is] toward you, because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
28_HOS_05_02 And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I [have been] a rebuker of them all.
28_HOS_05_03 I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou committest whoredom, [and] Israel is defiled.
28_HOS_05_04 They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms [is] in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD.
28_HOS_05_05 And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.
28_HOS_05_06 They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find [him]; he hath withdrawn himself from them.
28_HOS_05_07 They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.
28_HOS_05_08 Blow ye the cornet in Gibeah, [and] the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud [at] Bethaven, after thee, O Benjamin.
28_HOS_05_09 Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.
28_HOS_05_10 The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: [therefore] I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
28_HOS_05_11 Ephraim [is] oppressed [and] broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.
28_HOS_05_12 Therefore [will] I [be] unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
28_HOS_05_13 When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah [saw] his wound, then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you, nor cure you of your wound.
28_HOS_05_14 For I [will be] unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, [even] I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue [him].
28_HOS_05_15 I will go [and] return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
