Hosea 5:13

The Priests Are A Snare

¹² But, I, was like a moth, to Ephraim, - and like rotten wood to the house of Judah. ¹³ When Ephraim, saw, his injury, and Judah his wound, then went Ephraim unto Assyria, and Judah sent unto a hostile king, - yet, he, cannot heal you, nor will the wound, remove from you. ¹⁴ For, I, will be as a lion unto Ephraim, and as a young lion to the house of Judah, - I, I, will tear in pieces, and depart, I will carry off, and none be able to rescue.
