Berean Standard Bible
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.
“
Hear this, O priests !
Take
heed
, O
house of Israel !
Give ear, O royal
house !
For this
judgment is against
you because you
have been a snare at
Mizpah, a net spread out
on
Tabor.
And
the revolters
are profound
to
make
slaughter ,
though
I have
been
a
rebuker
of
them all.
The rebels
are deep
in
slaughter ;
but
I will
chastise
them all.
I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid
from me :
for now, O Ephraim, thou
committest
whoredom,
and
Israel is defiled.
I know all
about
Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden
from Me .
For now, O Ephraim, you
have
turned
to
prostitution;
Israel is defiled.
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.
Their deeds
do
not
permit
them
to return
to
their God ,
for a
spirit of prostitution
is within
them, and they do
not know
the LORD.
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.
Israel’s
arrogance
testifies
against
them;
Israel and Ephraim stumble
in their iniquity ;
even
Judah stumbles
with them.
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withdrawn himself from them.
They go with their flocks and herds to seek the LORD ,
but they do
not find Him; He has
withdrawn Himself from them.
They have dealt
treacherously
against
the LORD :
for they have begotten
strange
children :
now shall
a
month
devour them with their portions
.
They have been
unfaithful
to
the LORD ;
for they have borne
illegitimate
children .
Now the
New
Moon
will
devour them along
with their land
.
Blow ye
the cornet
in Gibeah, and
the trumpet in Ramah :
cry aloud
at
Bethaven,
after
thee
, O Benjamin .
Blow the ram’s
horn
in Gibeah, the trumpet in Ramah ;
raise
the
battle
cry in
Beth-aven:
Lead
on
, O Benjamin !
Ephraim shall
be desolate
in
the day of rebuke :
among the tribes of Israel have
I made
known
that
which
shall
surely
be
.
Ephraim will
be laid
waste
on
the day of rebuke .
Among the tribes of Israel I proclaim
what
is
certain
.
The princes of Judah were
like them
that
remove
the
bound:
therefore
I will pour out my wrath
upon them like water.
The princes of Judah are
like those
who
move
boundary
stones;
I will pour out My fury
upon them like water.
Ephraim is oppressed and
broken
in judgment, because
he willingly
walked
after
the
commandment
.
Ephraim is oppressed ,
crushed
in judgment, for
he is
determined
to
follow
worthless
idols
.
Therefore
will
I be
unto
Ephraim
as
a moth, and to the house of Judah as
rottenness
.
So
I am
like
a moth to
Ephraim
, and like
decay
to the house of Judah.
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.
When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah his wound, then Ephraim turned
to Assyria
and sent to the
great
king .
But
he cannot
cure you or
heal
your wound.
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
.
For I am
like
a lion to
Ephraim
and like
a young lion to the house of Judah .
I, even I, will tear them
to
pieces
and then
go away .
I will carry
them
off
where
no
one
can
rescue them
.
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
.
Then
I will return to My place until
they admit
their guilt
and seek My face ;
in their affliction they will earnestly
seek Me. ”
