² And the ^(A)revolters have ^(B)dug deep into slaughtering,
But I will chastise all of them.
³ I ^(C)know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me;
For now, O Ephraim, you have played the harlot;
Israel has defiled itself.
⁴ Their deeds will not allow them
To return to their God.
For a ^(D)spirit of harlotry is within them,
And they ^(E)do not know Yahweh.
