5 The pride of Israel testifies to his face;Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in his guilt; Judah also shall stumble with them.
6 With their flocks and herds they shall goto seek the Lord, but they will not find him; he has withdrawn from them.
7 They have dealt faithlessly with the Lord;for they have borne alien children.Now the new moon shall devour them with their fields.
8 Blow the horn in Gibeah,the trumpet in Ramah.Sound the alarm at Beth-aven;we follow you, O Benjamin!
9 Ephraim shall become a desolationin the day of punishment;among the tribes of IsraelI make known what is sure.
10 The princes of Judah have becomelike those who move the landmark;upon them I will pour outmy wrath like water.
11 Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment,because he was determined to go after filth.
