Hosea 5:4-6

Lexham English Bible

⁴ Their deeds do not permit them
    to return them to God.
Because a spirit of whoredom is in their midst,
    they do not know Yahweh.
⁵ The pride of Israel testifies against him,^[a]
    and Israel and Ephraim stumble in their guilt,
        and Judah stumbles with them.
⁶ With their flocks^[b] and herds^[c] they will go
    to seek Yahweh, but they will not find him;
        he has withdrawn from them.
