1 Listen, you priests!Pay attention, Israel!Listen, you membersof the royal family.Justice was your duty.But at Mizpah and Mount Taboryou trapped the people.
2 At the place of worshipyou were a treacherous pit,and I will punish you.
3 Israel, I know all about you,and because of your unfaithfulness,I find you unacceptable.
4 Your evil deeds are the reasonyou won't return to me,your Lord God.And your constant craving for sexkeeps you from knowing me.
