The Response to God’s Rebuke

That we may live before Him.

And the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.

There they have dealt treacherously with Me.

So a band of priests murder on the way to Shechem;

Certainly they have committed an act of infamy.

In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing;

Ephraim’s infidelity is there, Israel has defiled itself.

When I restore the fortunes of My people.
