Hosea 5:2-4
King James Version
2 And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all.
3 I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou committest whoredom, and Israel is defiled.
4 They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not known the Lord.

2 The revolters are (A)deeply involved in slaughter,
Though I rebuke them all.

And Israel is not hidden from Me;
For now, O Ephraim, (C)you commit harlotry;

For (D)the spirit of harlotry is in their midst,
And they do not know the Lord.
