Hosea 6:9-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
9 Like brigands lying in wait
is the band of priests.
They murder on the road to Shechem,[a]
indeed they commit a monstrous crime.
10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing:
there is found Ephraim’s prostitution,
Israel is defiled.
11 For you also, Judah,
a harvest[b] has been appointed!
