כִּי כְּפָרָה סֹֽרֵרָה סָרַר יִשְׂרָאֵל עַתָּה יִרְעֵם יְהוָה כְּכֶבֶשׂ בַּמֶּרְחָֽב
For Israel is stubborn like a stubborn heifer; Now shall the LORD feed them as a lamb in a large place?
חֲבוּר עֲצַבִּים אֶפְרָיִם הַֽנַּֽח־לֽוֹ
Ephraim is joined to idols; Let him alone.
סָר סָבְאָם הַזְנֵה הִזְנוּ אָהֲבוּ הֵבוּ קָלוֹן מָגִנֶּֽיהָ
When their carouse is over, They take to harlotry; Her rulers deeply love dishonour.
צָרַר רוּחַ אוֹתָהּ בִּכְנָפֶיהָ וְיֵבֹשׁוּ מִזִּבְחוֹתָֽם
The wind hath bound her up in her skirts; And they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
שִׁמְעוּ־זֹאת הַכֹּהֲנִים וְהַקְשִׁיבוּ בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל וּבֵית הַמֶּלֶךְ הַאֲזִינוּ כִּי לָכֶם הַמִּשְׁפָּט כִּֽי־פַח הֱיִיתֶם לְמִצְפָּה וְרֶשֶׁת פְּרוּשָׂה עַל־תָּבֽוֹר
Hear this, O ye priests, And attend, ye house of Israel, And give ear, O house of the king, For unto you pertaineth the judgment; For ye have been a snare on Mizpah, And a net spread upon Tabor.
