Hosea 7:1

When You would heal Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim is uncovered, and the evil deeds of Samaria, for we deal falsely; the thief enters in, bandits raid outside.

In our filthiness is lewdness. Because You would have cleansed us, yet we are not clean, we will not be cleansed from our filthiness again, until You have spent Your wrath on us.

All of us are stubbornly rebellious, going about as a talebearer. We are bronze and iron; we, all of us, are corrupt. The bellows blow fiercely, the lead is consumed by the fire; in vain the refining goes on, but the wicked are not separated. We call the wicked rejected silver, because You have rejected them.
