Hosea 5:5-14
Israel’s arrogance testifies against them; the Israelites, even Ephraim, stumble in their sin; Judah also stumbles with them.When they go with their flocks and herds to seek the Lord, they will not find him; he has withdrawn himself from them.They are unfaithful to the Lord; they give birth to illegitimate children. When they celebrate their New Moon feasts, he will devour their fields.“ Sound the trumpet in Gibeah, the horn in Ramah. Raise the battle cry in Beth Aven; lead on, Benjamin.Ephraim will be laid waste on the day of reckoning. Among the tribes of Israel I proclaim what is certain.Judah’s leaders are like those who move boundary stones. I will pour out my wrath on them like a flood of water.Ephraim is oppressed, trampled in judgment, intent on pursuing idols.I am like a moth to Ephraim, like rot to the people of Judah.“ When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah his sores, then Ephraim turned to Assyria, and sent to the great king for help. But he is not able to cure you, not able to heal your sores.For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a great lion to Judah. I will tear them to pieces and go away; I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them. (niv)

Amos 2:4-8
This is what the Lord says:“ For three sins of Judah, even for four, I will not relent.

They sell the innocent for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals.They trample on the heads of the poor as on the dust of the ground and deny justice to the oppressed. Father and son use the same girl and so profane my holy name.They lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge. In the house of their god they drink wine taken as fines. (niv)
