7 But atv Adam they transgressed the covenant;

there they dealt faithlessly with me.

8 Gilead is a city of evildoers,

tracked with blood.

9 As robbers lie in waitw for a man,

so the priests are banded together;*

they murder on the way to Shechem,

yea, they commit villainy.

10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing;

Ephraim’s harlotry is there, Israel is defiled.

11 For you also, O Judah, a harvest is appointed.

When I would restore the fortunes of my people,

Chapter 7

1 when I would heal Israel,

the corruption of Ephraim is revealed,

and the wicked deeds of Samaria;

for they deal falsely,

the thief breaks in,

and the bandits raid without.

2 But they do not consider

that I remember all their evil works.

Now their deeds encompass them,

they are before my face.
