CHAP. V. 1 Against the Priestes and rulers of Israel. 13 The helpe of man is in vaine.


1   O ye Priestes, heare this, and hearken ye, O house of Israel, and giue ye eare, O house of the King: for iudgement is towarde you, because you haue bene a note snare on Mizpah, and a net spred vpon Tabor.


2   Yet they were profounde, to decline to note slaughter, though I haue bene a note rebuker of them all.


3   I knowe note Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for nowe, O Ephraim thou art become an harlot, and Israel is defiled.


4   They will not giue their mindes to turne vnto their God: for the spirit of fornication is in the middes of them, and they haue not knowen the Lord.


5   And the note pride of Israel doth testifie to his face: therefore shal Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquitie: Iudah also shall fall with them.


6   They shall goe with their sheepe, and with their bullockes to seeke the Lorde: but they shall not finde him: for he hath withdrawne himselfe from them.


7   They haue transgressed against the Lorde: for they haue begott&ebar; note strange children: now shal note a moneth deuoure them with their portions.


8   Blowe ye the trumpet in Gibeah, and the shaume in Ramah: crie out at Beth-auen, after thee, O note Beniamin.


9   Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel haue I caused to note knowe the trueth.


10   The princes of Iudah were like them that note remoue the bounde: therefore will I powre out my wrath vpon them like water.


11   Ephraim is oppressed, and broken in iudgement, because he willingly walked after the note commandement.


12   Therefore wil I be vnto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Iudah as a rottennesse.


13   When Ephraim sawe his sickenes, and Iudah his wound, then went Ephraim vnto note Asshur, and sent vnto King note Iareb: yet coulde hee not heale you, nor cure you of your wound.


14   For I will be vnto Ephraim as a lyon, and as a lyons whelpe to the house of Iudah: I, euen I will spoyle, and goe away: I will take away, and none shall rescue it.


15   I will go, and returne to my place, til they acknowledge their fault, and seeke me: in their affliction they will seeke me diligently.

The Lord woundeth and healeth.
