Глава 5

1. ¶ HEAR this, O priests; and give ear, O house of Israel; and listen, O house of the king; for the judgment is for you, because you have been a snare to prophets and a net spread upon Tabor.
2. And the hunters who hunt have laid hidden snares, but I will chastise them all.
3. I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me; for now Ephraim has committed whoredom, and Israel is defiled.
4. Their evil devices will not permit them to turn to their God; for the spirit of whoredom is in the midst of them, and they have not known the LORD.
5. And the pride of Israel shall be humbled before his presence; and Israel and Ephraim shall fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.
6. They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find him, because he has withdrawn himself from them.
7. They have dealt falsely with the LORD, for they have begotten alien children.
8. ¶ Blow the trumpet in Ramtha, blow the horn in Ramtha; cry aloud at Beth-aon; the enemy is after you, O Benjamin.
9. Ephraim shall be desolate in the clay of rebuke; among the tribes of Israel I have made known that which shall surely be.
10. The princes of Judah were like those who remove a landmark; therefore I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
11. Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, because he willingly went after vain things.
12. Therefore I will be as a tempest to Ephraim, and to the house of Judah as a lion.
13. When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah saw his wounds, then Ephraim went to Assyria, and sent to the great king; but he cannot heal you nor cure you of your wounds.
14. For I will be to 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.
15. I will return and go to my place, till they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face; in their affliction they will seek me early.
