14 For aIsrael has forgotten bhis Maker
and cbuilt palaces,
and aJudah has multiplied fortified cities;
so dI will send a fire upon his cities,
and it shall devour her strongholds.
4 What shall I do with you, gO hEphraim?
What shall I do with you, O hJudah?
Your love is ilike a morning cloud,
ilike the dew that goes early away.
14 For I will be tlike a lion to uEphraim,
and like a young lion to the house of uJudah.
vI, even I, will tear and go away;
I will carry off, and no one shall rescue.
12 But I am plike a moth to Ephraim,
and plike dry rot to the house of Judah.
10 The princes of Judah have become
like nthose who move the landmark;
upon them I will pour out
my wrath like water.
5 eThe pride of Israel testifies to his face;1
Israel and fEphraim shall stumble in his guilt;
fJudah also shall stumble with them.
The Lord’s Indictment of Israel and Judah
2 cThe Lord has an indictment against Judah
and will punish Jacob according to his ways;
he will repay him according to his deeds.
