Hosea 5:13

The Priests Are A Snare

¹² And I am as a moth to Ephraim, And as a rotten thing to the house of Judah. ¹³ And see doth Ephraim his sickness, and Judah his wound, And Ephraim goeth unto Asshur, And sendeth unto a warlike king, And he is not able to give healing to you, Nor doth he remove from you a scar. ¹⁴ For I am as a lion to Ephraim, And as a young lion to the house of Judah, I -- I tear and go, I bear away, and there is no deliverer.
