they do not realize

that I remember all their evil deeds.

Their sins engulf them;

they are always before me.

“Put the trumpet to your lips!

An eagle is over the house of the Lord

because the people have broken my covenant

and rebelled against my law."

Let Israel know this.

Because your sins are so many

and your hostility so great,

the prophet is considered a fool,

the inspired person a maniac.

The prophet, along with my God,

is the watchman over Ephraim,[a]

yet snares await him on all his paths,

and hostility in the house of his God.
