Blow8628 ye the cornet7782 in Gibeah,1390 and the trumpet2689 in Ramah:7414 cry aloud7321 at Bethaven,1007 after310 thee, O Benjamin.1144

5:10

The princes8269 of Judah3063 were like them that remove5253 the bound:1366 therefore I will pour out8210 my wrath5678 upon them like water.4325

5:11

Ephraim669 is oppressed6231 and broken7533 in judgment,4941 because he willingly2974 walked1980 after310 the commandment.6673

When Ephraim669 saw7200 his sickness,2483 and Judah3063 saw his wound,4205 then went3212 Ephraim669 to the Assyrian,804 and sent7971 to king4428 Jareb:3377 yet could3201 he not heal7495 you, nor cure1455 you of your wound.4205

5:14

For I will be unto Ephraim669 as a lion,7826 and as a young lion3715 to the house1004 of Judah:3063 I, even I, will tear2963 and go away;3212 I will take away,5375 and none shall rescue5337 him.

I will go3212 and return7725 to my place,4725 till they acknowledge their offence,816 and seek1245 my face:6440 in their affliction6862 they will seek me early.7836
