The war between Yehudah and Yisrael

Hos 5:8–15

8Blow the horn in Gibeah,

and the trumpet in Ramah.

Sound the alarm at Beyt-Aven:

‘We’ll follow you into battle, Benyamin!’

9Efrayim/Yisrael will become uninhabited in the time of punishment.

Among Yisrael’s tribes I declare what will certainly happen.


10Yehudah’s leaders are like thieves who move a boundary.

I’ll pour my anger out on them like water from a jug.

11Efrayim is oppressed.

It’s crushed in judgement,

because it was determined to honour idols.

12So I’ll be like a moth to Efrayim,

and like rot to Yehudah’s descendants.


13When Efrayim saw its sickness,

and Yehudah its wound,

then Efrayim went to Assyria,

and sent to the great king there.

But he can’t cure you

or heal your wound,

14because I’ll be like a lion to Efrayim,

and like a young lion to Yehudah’s descendants.

I myself will tear them apart then go away.

I’ll carry them off and there’ll be no one to rescue them.


15I’ll go and return to my place,

until they acknowledge their guilt and strive to do what I’ve told them

until in their distress, they make a sincere decision to obey me.”
