Hosea 5:1-3

Revised Standard Version

Impending Judgment on Israel and Judah

5 Hear this, O priests!
Give heed, O house of Israel!
Hearken, O house of the king!
    For the judgment pertains to you;
for you have been a snare at Mizpah,
    and a net spread upon Tabor.
²And they have made deep the pit of Shittim;^[a]
    but I will chastise all of them.

³I know E′phraim,
and Israel is not hid from me;
for now, O E′phraim, you have played the harlot,
Israel is defiled.
