3. I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me; for now, O Ephraim, thou dost commit whoredom, and Israel is defiled.
4. They will not think about returning unto their God; for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they do not know the Lord.
5. And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore Israel and Ephraim shall fall in their iniquity; Judah shall also fall with them.
6. They shall go with their flocks and with their herds seeking the Lord; but they shall not find him; he has withdrawn himself from them.
7. They have rebelled against the Lord; for they have begotten strange sons; now a month shall devour them with their portions.
8. Blow ye the shofar in Gibeah and the trumpet in Ramah; sound the drum in Bethaven; after thee, O Benjamin.
