8 “Blow the cornet in Gibeah,and the shofar 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.
