5 Israel, your pridetestifies to your guilt;it makes you stumble,and Judah stumbles too.
6 You offer sheep and cattleas sacrifices to me,but I have turned awayand refuse to be found.
7 You have been unfaithfulto me, your Lord;you have had childrenby prostitutes.So at the New Moon Festival,you and your cropswill be destroyed.
8 Give a warning on the trumpet!Let it be heard in Gibeah,Ramah, and sinful Bethel.Benjamin, watch out!
9 I, the Lord, will punishand wipe out Israel.This is my solemn promiseto every tribe of Israel.
10 Judah's leaders are like crookswho move boundary markers;that's why I will flood themwith my anger.
11 Israel was brutally crushed.They got what they deservedfor worshiping useless idols.
