7 when I heal Israel,^(A)
the iniquity of Ephraim^(B) and the crimes of Samaria^(C)
will be exposed.
For they practise fraud;^(D)
a thief breaks in;
a raiding party pillages outside.^(E)

⁸ How can I give you up, Ephraim?^(A)
How can I surrender you, Israel?
How can I make you like Admah?^(B)
How can I treat you like Zeboiim?^(C)
I have had a change of heart;
my compassion is stirred!
