8. Blow the horn in Gibeah, the trumpet in Ramah; raise the war cry in Beth-aven: After you, Benjamin!
9. Ephraim will become a desolation on the day of punishment; I announce what is certainamong the tribes of Israel.
10. The princes of Judah are like thosewho move boundary markers; I will pour out My fury on them like water.
11. Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment, for he is determined to follow what is worthless.
12. So I am like rot to Ephraim and like decay to the house of Judah.
