Hosea 6:8-10
New King James Version
8 (A)Gilead is a city of evildoers
And [a]defiled with blood.
9 As bands of robbers lie in wait for a man,
So the company of (B)priests (C)murder on the way to Shechem;
Surely they commit (D)lewdness.
10 I have seen a horrible thing in the house of Israel:
There is the [b]harlotry of Ephraim;
Israel is defiled.

There Ephraim is given to prostitution,
Israel is defiled.(F)
