Israel’s pride proves that they are guilty.
    The people of Ephraim trip and fall because they have sinned.
    Judah falls down along with them.
Israel will come to worship the Lord.
    They will bring their animals to offer as sacrifices.
But they will not find him.
    He has turned away from them.
They are not faithful to the Lord.
    Their children are not his.
When they celebrate their New Moon feasts,
    he will destroy their fields.

When they go with their flocks and herds
    to seek the Lord,(D)
they will not find him;
    he has withdrawn(E) himself from them.
They are unfaithful(F) to the Lord;
    they give birth to illegitimate(G) children.
When they celebrate their New Moon feasts,(H)
    he will devour[a](I) their fields.
