Judgment for Betrayal

Hear this, O priests!
Pay attention, O house of Israel!
Give ear, O house of the king!
For the judgment applies to you:
For you were a snare at Mizpah
    and a net spread on Tabor.
Rebels were deep in slaughter,
so I am a chastisement for them all.
I myself have known Ephraim,
and Israel is not hidden from Me.
For now, Ephraim, you are a prostitute—
    Israel is defiled!
