Eternal One: I will heal Israel of her exposed sins:
        Ephraim’s wickedness will be laid open;
    Also Samaria’s evil will be revealed:
        dishonesty is tolerated, thieves break in and bandits rob in the open.
    They don’t realize I’m aware of all of the evil they’re doing.
        Even now their sins are all around them—I can see them clearly.

The king celebrates their evil deeds,
    and princes enjoy their deceptions.
