Contend with your mother! Contend, for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;

The pride of Israel testifies to his face. Therefore Israel and Ephraim will stumble in their iniquity. Judah also will stumble with them.

I will go and return to my place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face. In their affliction they will seek me earnestly."

They don't consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness. Now their own deeds have engulfed them. They are before my face.

The pride of Israel testifies to his face; yet they haven't returned to Yahweh their God, nor sought him, for all this.
