The Peoples Apostasy Rebuked 1Hear this, O priests! Give heed, O house of Israel! Listen, O house of the king! For the judgment applies to you, For you have been a snare at Mizpah And a net spread out on Tabor.
2The revolters have gone deep in depravity,
3I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me;
4Their deeds will not allow them
5Moreover, the pride of Israel testifies against him,
6They will go with their flocks and herds
7They have dealt treacherously against the LORD,
8Blow the horn in Gibeah,
9Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke;
10The princes of Judah have become like those who move a boundary;
11Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment,
12Therefore I am like a moth to Ephraim
13When Ephraim saw his sickness,
14For I will be like a lion to Ephraim
15I will go away and return to My place NASB 1995 Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif. All rights reserved. For Permission to Quote Information visit http://www.lockman.org Bible Hub |
