Hosea 5:2-4
Names of God Bible

2 You are deeply involved in sin.
    So I will punish all of you.[a]
3 I know Ephraim,
    and Israel isn’t a stranger to me.
    Now, Ephraim, you are acting like a prostitute,
    and Israel is unclean.[b]

4 “The wicked things that the people have done
    keep them from returning to their Elohim.
        They have a spirit of prostitution,
            and they don’t know Yahweh.
