Hosea 5:8 Context
6They shall goe with their flocks, and with their heards to seeke the Lord: but they shall not finde him, he hath withdrawen himselfe from them. 7They haue dealt treacherously against the Lord: for they haue begotten strange children, now shall a moneth deuoure them with their portions. 8Blow yee the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: cry alowd at Beth-auen: after thee, O Beniamin. 9Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel haue I made knowen that which shall surely be. 10The Princes of Iudah were like them that remooue the bound: therefore I will powre out my wrath vpon them like water.
