Hosea 5:1-2
1599 Geneva Bible
5 1 Against the Priests and rulers of Israel. 13 The help of man is in vain.
1 O ye Priests, hear this, and hearken ye, O house of Israel, and give ye ear, O house of the King: for judgment is toward you, because you have been a [a]snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
2 Yet they were profound to decline to [b]slaughter, though I have been a [c]rebuker of them all.
