[1] “Listen to this, you priests!
Listen, house of Israel,
and give ear, house of the king!
For the judgment is against you;
for you have been a snare at Mizpah,
and a net spread on Tabor.
[2] The rebels are deep in slaughter,
but I discipline all of them.
[3] I know Ephraim,
and Israel is not hidden from me;
for now, Ephraim, you have played the prostitute.
Israel is defiled.
[4] Their deeds won’t allow them to turn to their God,
for the spirit of prostitution is within them,
and they don’t know Yahweh.
[5] The pride of Israel testifies to his face.
Therefore Israel and Ephraim will stumble in their iniquity.
Judah also will stumble with them.
[6] They will go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Yahweh,
but they won’t find him.
He has withdrawn himself from them.
[7] They are unfaithful to Yahweh;
for they have borne illegitimate children.
Now the new moon will devour them with their fields. [8] “Blow the cornet in Gibeah,
and the trumpet in Ramah!
Sound a battle cry at Beth Aven, behind you, Benjamin!
[9] Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke.
Among the tribes of Israel, I have made known that which will surely be.
[10] The princes of Judah are like those who remove a landmark.
I will pour out my wrath on them like water.
[11] Ephraim is oppressed,
he is crushed in judgment,
because he is intent in his pursuit of idols.
[12] Therefore I am to Ephraim like a moth,
and to the house of Judah like rottenness. [13] “When Ephraim saw his sickness,
and Judah his wound,
then Ephraim went to Assyria,
and sent to King Jareb:
but he is not able to heal you,
neither will he cure you of your wound.
[14] For I will be to Ephraim like a lion,
and like a young lion to the house of Judah.
I myself will tear in pieces and go away.
I will carry off, and there will be no one to deliver.
[15] I will go and return to my place,
until they acknowledge their offense,
and seek my face.
In their affliction they will seek me earnestly.”

King James Version
Against Priests and Kings
[1] Hear H8085 ye this, O priests; H3548 and hearken, H7181 ye house H1004 of Israel; H3478 and give ye ear, H238 O house H1004 of the king; H4428 for H3588 judgment H4941 is toward you, because ye have been a snare H6341 on Mizpah, H4709 and a net H7568 spread H6566 upon Tabor. H8396 [2] And the revolters H7846 are profound H6009 to make slaughter, H7819 though§ I have been a rebuker§ H4148 of them all. [3] I know H3045 Ephraim, H669 and Israel H3478 is not hid H3582 from H4480 me: for now, O Ephraim, H669 thou committest whoredom, H2181 and Israel H3478 is defiled. H2930 [4] They will H5414 not H3808 frame H5414§ their doings H4611 to turn H7725 unto H413 their God: H430 for H3588 the spirit H7307 of whoredoms H2183 is in the midst H7130 of them, and they have not known H3045 the Lord. H3068 [5] And the pride H1347 of Israel H3478 doth testify H6030 to his face: H6440 therefore shall Israel H3478 and Ephraim H669 fall H3782 in their iniquity; H5771 Judah H3063 also H1571 shall fall H3782 with them. [6] They shall go H3212 with their flocks H6629 and with their herds H1241 to seek H1245 H853 the Lord; H3068 but they shall not find H4672 him; he hath withdrawn H2502 himself from them. [7] They have dealt treacherously H898 against the Lord: H3068 for H3588 they have begotten H3205 strange H2114 children: H1121 now H6258 shall a month H2320 devour H398 them with their portions. H2506 [8] Blow H8628 ye the cornet H7782 in Gibeah, H1390 and the trumpet H2689 in Ramah: H7414 cry aloud H7321 at Beth-aven, H1007 after H310 thee, O Benjamin. H1144 [9] Ephraim H669 shall be desolate H8047 in the day H3117 of rebuke: H8433 among the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 have I made known H3045 that which shall surely be. H539 [10] The princes H8269 of Judah H3063 were like them that remove H5253 the bound: H1366 therefore I will pour out H8210 my wrath H5678 upon H5921 them like water. H4325 [11] Ephraim H669 is oppressed H6231 and broken H7533 in judgment, H4941 because H3588 he willingly H2974 walked H1980 after H310 the commandment. H6673 [12] Therefore will I be unto Ephraim H669 as a moth, H6211 and to the house H1004 of Judah H3063 as rottenness. H7538§ [13] When Ephraim H669 saw H7200 H853 his sickness, H2483 and Judah H3063 saw his wound, H4205 then went H3212 Ephraim H669 to the Assyrian, H804 and sent H7971 to king H4428 Jareb: H3377§ H7378 yet could H3201 he not heal H7495 you, nor cure H1455 you of your wound. H4205 [14] For I will be unto Ephraim H669 as a lion, H7826 and as a young lion H3715 to the house H1004 of Judah: H3063 I, even I, will tear H2963 and go away; H3212 I will take away, H5375 and none shall rescue H5337 him. [15] I will go H3212 and return H7725 to my place, H4725 till H5704 they acknowledge their offence, H816§ and seek H1245 my face: H6440 in their affliction H6862 they will seek me early.
